Consumer Description
I was driving the car on the highway when the engine suddenly stopped. After towing it to the auto mechanic, he informed me that the timing chain was damaged, so the oil pressure went down and the engine was gone. The car never displayed any warning messages. I was driving my father and my sister to the airport and the trucks could have hit us. There was no shoulder and I could hardly pull over on a small and narrow piece of shoulder on i17 South. BMW said a new engine and other parts would cost me $15,000.
