Consumer Description

ABS HYDRAULIC UNIT FAILURE. MANY BMW VEHICLES OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS HAVE HAD VARIOUS ISSUES WITH THEIR BMW ABS SYSTEMS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PER BMW MEMBER SITES AND THE FACT THAT BMW PUT OUT A REPAIR KIT FOR THE PROBLEMS SHOULD CONFIRM THAT A LOT OF BMW AUTOS HAVE THIS ABS PROBLEM. THE REPAIR/ REPLACEMENT IS $4000.00 ON AVERAGE AND I FEAR PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD THAT AND ARE DRIVING WITH NO ABS AND MOST TIMES TRACTION CONTROL, I MYSELF STILL HAVEN'T FIXED MINE DUE TO THE EXPENSE. LOCAL BMW SAYS OUT OF WARRANTY, TOO BAD ; BUT NO WAY A $50K CAR HAS THIS BIG A DEFECT UNDER 50,000 MILES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR
