NHTSA Complaint #11654575 — 2019 BMW X5

I have a 2019 BMW X5 that experienced engine failure and required a new battery and starter to be installed. I feel certain that it is related to a recall on some 2019/2020 models but my vin is not included. [XXX] I received a fault warning for drivetrain malfunction. I took the car to the bmw dealership and was told it was an upper radiator blind failure and had it replaced. The dealership performed a software update per recall SIB 120524. The mileage was 36,981. While visiting family in New Orleans[XXX] @ [XXX] in the afternoon, on Decatur (heart of French Quarter) the car died in the middle of rush hour traffic. Fault came up that said ”engine overheat will attempt restart in 180 sec.” Car would not start and had to be towed to local BMW. Highly stressful as I was with my daughter. We had people honking horns, screaming at us, police threatening to ticket us, etc. ordeal lasted 2 hrs until tow arrived. After 4 days in the BMW shop I was advised a new battery was needed. No indication the starter was checked at this time. Mileage was 40,168. The next day [XXX] when driving home to Dallas I pull over to get gas in Natchitoches, La. I fill up and try to start car and failure notice shows up ”engine overheat will attempt restart in 180 sec”. Same thing as before new battery installed. The car did not restart even after an hr of waiting. Would not take a jump so we had to be towed to Shreveport(1 1/2 hrs away) to closest BMW dealership. I was traveling with My son and was beyond grateful at the kindness of the tow driver as he took us to get food and a hotel that was safe after delivering the car to the dealership. The next afternoon the Shreveport dealership determined that the starter failed and it had to be replaced. Mileage was 40,423. I feel I am due repayment for the tows and repairs on what I feel are recall related. I have contacted all 3 dealerships and North America BMW to get the run around. No one wants to take accountability! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATIO
