NHTSA Complaint #10919875 — 2015 BMW X5

I PARKED MY 2015 BMW X5 AT WORK AT 8:30 AM. WHEN I GOT INTO THE CAR AT 5:00 PM ALL THE LIGHTS WERE RED AND YELLOW ON THE DASHBOARD. I TRIED TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE CAN BE DRIVEN AND I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT JEOPARDIZING MY LIFE. LUCKILY, NOBODY ELSE WAS DRIVING IN THE PARKING LOT AT THE SAME TIME AS I DID NOT HAVE POWER IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE. NEXT DAY, MY CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE RODENT ISSUES AND THE RODENTS CHEWED THE WIRING INSIDE THE HARNESS. I CALLED BMW TO TELL THEM THAT THEY ARE JEOPARDIZING MY LIFE AND OTHER PEOPLE'S LIFE BUT THEY DID NOT CARE ABOUT MY COMMENTS AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO ADMIT THAT THIS IS POOR DESIGN ON THEIR SIDE. I ALSO TOLD THEM THAT EVEN IF I GET THE WIRING REPLACED , I CAN EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN AND AGAIN. I TOLD BMW THAT THEY SHOULD DO A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE BUT THEY DID NOT CARE AT ALL. THE ONLY THING THAT THEY ARE TELLING ME IS THAT THIS IS AN "EXTERNAL ISSUE" AND THE CUSTOMER HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. PLEASE HELP ME AND THE OTHER BMW DRIVERS TO HAVE A SAFE RIDE AS I DON'T TRUST THE BMW COMPANY ANYMORE. *TR
