Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING IN A CITY RESIDENTIAL AREA, GOING ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN THE CAR STOPPED AFTER SPUTTERING A COUPLE OF TIMES. NO WARNING AT ALL BUT THERE WAS A MESSAGE ON THE DASH, "DRIVE TRAIN MALFUNCTION". I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, A GRASSY AREA JUST BARELY OFF THE PAVED ROAD. IT WAS LOCATED ON A CURVE. AT THE TIME, THERE WAS A THUNDERSTORM WITH LIGHTNING AND HEAVY RAIN. WE WERE EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT HIT BY TRAFFIC COMING UP BEHIND ME. BMW MECHANICS REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP.
