Consumer Description

BMW x7 has the start button by the stick shift and other buttons for navigation modes and others and I when not in park at speed of 25 mph if mistakenly you hit the start button it shut off the car losing power breaks and power steering. BMW told me that how it is designed and above 25 mph even if you are at 100 mph if you do it once the car will go into neutral, if you do it twice the car will shut off and you lose everything I think that is very serious This happened to me while driving. We hit the start/stop button and the car shut off, throwing us into neutral and i had to come to a complete stop to restart the car. I became a road hazard while stopped in a busy intersection and luckily we did not have an accident and no one was injured.
