NHTSA Complaint #11573819 — 2022 BMW IX

I am writing to report a serious safety concern regarding the 2022 BMW iX, specifically related to the malfunction of its safety system due to the software provided by Green Hill Software. This issue has resulted in multiple instances where the safety system of the vehicle locked up, putting drivers, passengers, and other road users at significant risk of accidents. On several occasions, while operating my 2022 BMW iX, I have experienced sudden and unexpected failures in the safety system. These failures have occurred during critical moments of driving, where the vehicle's safety systems are relied upon to prevent accidents and protect occupants. The incidents have almost led to accidents, causing severe distress and endangerment to myself and others on the road. Upon investigation, it has been identified that the fault lies within the software provided by Green Hill Software, which is integral to the functioning of the vehicle's safety systems. Despite attempts to rectify the issue through software updates and dealership interventions, the problem persists, posing an ongoing threat to the safety of BMW iX drivers and the public at large. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate action to address the safety concerns associated with the software provided by Green Hill Software in the 2022 BMW iX. It is imperative that swift action is taken to ensure the safety and well-being of all motorists and pedestrians affected by this issue. Furthermore, I request that NHTSA liaise with BMW and Green Hill Software to implement a comprehensive solution to rectify the software-related safety issues in the affected vehicles promptly. This may involve recalls, software updates, or other corrective measures necessary to mitigate the risks posed by the faulty software.
