Consumer Description

MY 7 YEAR OLD BMW WILL NOT START DUE TO TIMING AND VALVE ISSUES - IT'S A PART THAT'S BEEN RECALLED IN 2010 CARS, AND IS ALSO OCCURRING IN 2007 CARS (BUT THAT YEAR DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL). IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING THE CAR WHEN THE TIMING WENT OUT, THEN I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT - WITH THE CAR STOPPING SUDDENLY. NOW I AM DEALING WITH MY CAR NEVER STARTING AGAIN. *TR
