Consumer Description

FUEL PUMP!, NEAR THE GAS TANK. I CAN'T GO VERY FAR IN MY CAR WITHOUT IT CUTTING OFF. I HAVE HAD IT DIAGNOSED BY BMW. I HAVE BEEN TOWED OFF THE HIGHWAY ( GRAND CENTRAL EXIT 19) WHILE BEING STUCK IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION ON 10/13/16. I HEAR 3 CONSECUTIVE BEEPS THEN WITHIN 5 MINUTES OR LESS THE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND THE SYSTEM SHOWS FUEL PUMP!. I HAVE HAD THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP REPLACE BY BMW, HOWEVER THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE THE PROBLEM. I AM NOT ENJOYING MY CAR. THE RECALL ANNOUNCED ON 10/28/2016, SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE THE 2009 BMW 5 SERIES. I LOVE THE BMW CARS, HOWEVER IT HAS BECOME THE ULTIMATE DRIVING NIGHTMARE. PLEASE INCLUDE THE 2009 SERIES IN THE RECALL. *TR
