NHTSA Complaint #11021140 — 2012 BMW 328I

RECENTLY MY GIRLFRIEND AND I HAD PURCHASED AND FINANCED A 2012 BMW 328I. THE MILEAGE WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR WAS AT 48,000. WITHEN THE FIRST 2 WEEKS OF HAVING THE CAR I HAD TO BRING IT BACK DUE TO THE PARKING LAMP BEING OUT. I DIDN'T GET NO WARNING FROM THE CAR THAT THE LIGHT WAS OUT EITHER. I BROUGHT IT IN THEY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM FOR THE TIME BEING AND I WENT ON MY WAY. THE SAME EXACT PARKING LAMP WENT OUT ANOTHER FEW WEEKS LATER. WE HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 3 MONTHS AND IT IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE AND SAYING THAT I HAVE DRIVEN A LOT MORE MILES THAN I ACTUALLY HAVE. THE ODOMETER IS NOW READING 60,000 MILES. BASICALLY SAYING I HAD DRIVEN OVER 13,000 MILES IN CLOSE TO 3 MONTHS TIME. THERE IS NO WAY I COULD OF DRIVEN 13,000 MILES IN THAT SHORT OF TIME WHEN I ONLY USE THE CAR TO GO TO WORK WHICH IS 20 MILES AWAY. THE CAR BROKE DOWN ON ME AND THE ODOMETER IS DEFINENTLY FAULTY. I KNOW ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHEN I SEE THEM. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE PRIOR TO BREAKING DOWN. ENGINE SHAKED VIOLENTLY AND MADE HISSING SOUNDS AFTER RELEASING THE GAS.
