NHTSA Complaint #11235235 — 2013 BMW X5

WHEN WE ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS/HESITATES TO THE POINT WHERE IT FEELS INCREDIBLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. WHEN WE TOOK THE X5 TO THE MECHANIC, THE MECHANIC SAID THAT IT WAS ODD THAT THERE WOULD BE A TRANSFER CASE PROBLEM AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE ON THE X5, WHICH WAS AT 67000 MILES AT THE TIME. WHEN I RESEARCHED ONLINE IF THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR OUR MAKE/MODEL, I LEARNED THAT THERE WERE MANY OTHER OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE SAME KIND OF PROBLEM -- MANY, IN FACT, DEMANDED THAT BMW OR THE NHTSA RECALL THE VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM (HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/BMW/X5/TRANSFER-CASE-PROBLEMS.PHP). I, ALONG WITH OTHER OWNERS FOR THIS MAKE/MODEL, BELIEVE THAT THIS TRANSFER CASE PROBLEM IS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO WARRANT A RECALL AS THE VEHICLE FEELS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE.
