NHTSA Complaint #11058453 — 2007 BMW 7 SERIES

ON 11-19-2017 WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY ROADWAY. MY PASSENGER CAR DOOR SUDDENLY OPENED AND TO AVOID ANY PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO MY PASSENGER I ABRUPTLY TURN MY VEHICLE TO A SAFER POSITION. NO SOON AFTER THAT I NOTICE MY VEHICLE LEVELING WARNING SIGN APPEAR ON THE DASH. WITH RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT OPENING DOOR LINKED UP TO RECALL ON THE NHTSA. I PROCEEDED TO CALL BMW FOR THE FIX. NOT KNOWING THE MECHANICS OF THE VEHICLE, I ASSUMED THIS FIX WILL FIX THE DOOR LOCK AND THE LEVELING PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I GOT THE DOOR FIXED BUT THE LEVELING PROBLEM GOT EVEN WORSE AFTER THE LOCK GOT FIXED. I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE ON 12-23-2017. TTHE LEVELING IS A HIGH SAFETY CONCERN. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THE ISSUE EXISTS WITH THESE CARS AND I WOULD LIKE A REMEDY FOR MY SITUATION. I CONTACTED BMW, BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE AS A RECALL.
