Consumer Description
I am reporting a serious and recurring safety issue with my 2024 BMW i4, which I leased new in December 2023. The vehicle currently has approximately 20,000 miles and has stalled multiple times at high speeds, displaying a drivetrain malfunction warning and issues related to the power supply and high-voltage battery system. This is extremely dangerous, especially in high-risk driving environments such as highways, bridges, and tunnels in Manhattan. A sudden stall compromises power steering and braking and could easily lead to a fatal crash. I have already had the vehicle towed to the service center three separate times, yet the issue remains unresolved. Given the repeated nature of this failure in a relatively new vehicle, I am deeply concerned this may be a broader defect in the i4 model and urge the NHTSA to please investigate. This issue has happened three separate time within the span of only 2 months. I am extremely worried and do not trust the car nor feel safe to operate it. I've included the two repair invoices I've received from BMW so far and the vehicle is currently at the service center for it's third attempt.
