Consumer Description

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS IRREGULAR, WHICH CAUSES EXTREME DISTORTION OF THE VIEW. DRIVING IS DANGEROUS AS THE DISTORTION CAUSES DIZZINESS. THE IMAGES I SEE ARE SEVERELY DISTORTED WITH THE CAR STOPPED OR IN MOTION BUT IT GETS WORSE WHEN MY CAR AND THE CAR AHEAD ARE IN MOTION AS BOTH THE ROAD AND THE CAR AHEAD ARE SHOWING VARIOUS DISTORTIONS AS THEY MOVE. THE BRAIN CAPTURES THESE DISTORTIONS WHICH ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FOR EACH EYE AND THAT IS CAUSING THE DIZZINESS AND DANGER. THE CAR HAS JUST 400 MILES AND DRIVING UNDER THESE CONDITIONS IS HAZARDOUS. THE DEALER STATES THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I LEFT THE CAR WITH THEM FOR ONE WEEK AND ACCORDING TO THE MILES IN/OUT, THEY DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR TO PERFORM A REAL INSPECTION OF MY COMPLAINS. THE DEALER WAS BRAMAN BMW, THE SERVICE PERSON WAS MARUF DIB MUCHALLAH AND HIS EMAIL IS [email protected], 305-203-6184. I AM AFRAID THIS MAY BE A DEFECTIVE BATCH THAT MAY BE PUTTING OTHER LIVES AT RISK AS WELL. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 3/5/2017 AND ON ALL THE DAYS (NOT MANY) THAT I DROVE IT, I EXPERIENCED SEVERE DIZZINESS.
