Consumer Description

ENGINE MALFUNCTION. ENGINE OPERATING AT REDUCED OUTPUT. ENGINE HAS MALFUNCTIONED NUMEROUS TIMES. SHUTS DOWN TO REDUCED OUTPUT, WITHOUT WARNING AND WITHOUT ALLOWANCE FOR TRAFFIC CONDITIONS, ONLY ALLOWING FOR 4-5 MPH TRAVEL. EXTREME DANGER! BMW HAS A "CUSTOMER CARE PACKAGE" THAT IS A RECALL, ALTHOUGH THEY ARE NOT CALLING IT A RECALL. HOWEVER, ALL PARTS OF RECALL HAVE BEEN REPLACED ON VEHICLE AND NOW HAVING TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED, THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IN TRAFFIC AND DO NOT TRUST TO HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO MERGE ONTO INTERSTATE. BMW IS SIMPLY THROWING PARTS AT A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO HARM THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. *TR
