NHTSA Complaint #11595992 — 2011 BMW X3

I purchased my vehicle less than three years ago for a large sum of money. It is a 2011 BMW X3 and shouldn’t have any engine problems especially at 130,000 miles. My engine is currently stalling and is a safety hazard to drive as it will stall while driving in high volume traffic. It has put me at risk for accidents and I have spent thousands trying to fix it. My mechanic found metal pieces that broke throughout the engine which he mentioned were the vanous bolts that hold the engine together. BMW has not issued a recall remedy and because of which, I currently have an undrivable vehicle that nobody will purchase. There are over 155,000 vehicles affected by this recall and BMW has not been helpful at all in prioritizing a solution as these are older vehicles and do not take “precedent” according to the BMW staff I have spoken with. Additionally they have not provided me with any sort of remedy in the interim stating that because it is an older car they cannot give me a loaner. They clearly do not treat all customers the same and prioritize remedies based on the newness of the car.
