NHTSA Complaint #11288059 — 2012 BMW 328I

HELLO I OWN A BMW 328I WITH A N20 ENGINE, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY I GOT AN ALERT COME ACROSS MY SCREEN SAYING THAT THE OIL PRESSURE LOW AND TO STOP IMMEDIATELY OR ENGINE FAILURE MAY OCCUR. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL ANYONE HOW SCARY IT IS TO BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THINK THAT YOUR TIMING CHAIN MAY BREAK OFF AND YOU ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ,BUT I STOPPED AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND GETTING THE CAR DIAGNOSED I RAN INTO THE TIMING CHAIN GUIDE AND TIMING CHAIN ISSUE OF FAILING ON THESE CARS WAY BEFORE THEY HIT ANY HIGH MILES MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS 81K MILES ON IT AND THIS ISSUE HAS IMMOBILIZED MY CAR TO PREVENT FURTHER DAMAGE I WILL NOT DRIVE THAT CAR, WHEN TALKING TO BMW ABOUT THE ISSUE THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DO KNOW ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT WILL NOT FIX IT FOR FREE.
