Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THIS CAR SECOND-HAND AFTER NOTING THAT IT HAD AN EXTENSIVE DEALER SERVICE HISTORY AND HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. AFTER BUYING IT, IT BEGAN MISFIRING AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH BAD FUEL INJECTORS, WHICH IS A NOTORIOUS PROBLEM FOR THE BMW N63 ENGINE. CERTAIN PRODUCTION DATES HAVE BEEN GIVEN AN EXTENDED LIMITED WARRANTY - MINE DID NOT. THE MANUFACTURER DID A "CUSTOMER CARE PACKAGE" VOLUNTARY RECALL, WHICH WAS PERFORMED ON MY CAR BUT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. CONSIDERING THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR IS A KNOWN DEFECT, I THINK BMW SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND HAVE IT FIXED, AS IT PRESENTS A VALID SAFETY CONCERN.
