Consumer Description
I am a new owner of a BMW X1. The design of the 2024 vehicle is problematic. I also own a 2022 BMW X3, that car is fine. This X1 has an infotainment system much like a Tesla and it creates a distracted driving situation. For example to deactivate that feature, which I do 100% of the time, that causes the stopped car to shut off takes one button press in the X3, in the X1 it takes 3. I have to press a button, find the deactivate on the screen then select the media button to go back to the radio. The whole time I am looking away or I have a passenger do it. To switch from say satellite to FM is similar but takes 5 on screen button presses. In the X3 I have buttons pre-programmed, no looking away. I cannot believe that this car was allowed to be built. I emailed BMW over a week ago and they did not reply. I am telling you because they can do better. This is just 2 examples there are other scenarios that force action to the screen in the car.
