Consumer Description
BMW X5M50D WHEN IT IS RAINING (HIGHWAY SPEED) AND I USE THE BRAKES THE CAR IS TURNING LEFT. HORRIBLE FEELING, I ALMOST HAD A CRASH TWICE WITH MY FAMILY BECAUSE YOU LOSE STEERING CONTROL WHEN YOU WANT TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT ...NORMAL CONDITIONS THE CAR IS BRAKING PERFECTLY...BMW DEALER ASSEMBLED SOME BRAKE DRYING SYSTEM BUT IT IS THE SAME. I AM AFRAID MORE CARS ARE AFFECTED. THE SITUATION IS MORE DANGEROUS THE STRONGEST YOU BRAKE AND ALSO DEPENDS ON THE RAIN DENSITY.
