THERE IS A CLEAR MANUFACTURING DEFECT CONCERNING THE ALUMINUM SCREWS ASSOCIATED WITH THE VALVE COVER GASKET AND THE ALUMINUM HEAD BOLTS ON 2006 BMW 325I'S. THE NHTSA HAS RECEIVED MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS DEFECT. THE ALUMINUM SCREWS/BOLTS HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED SINCE DISCOVERING THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT. BMWNA HAVE HAD NUMEROUS SERVICE ISSUES RELATED TO THESE DEFECTIVE ALUMINUM SCREWS/BOLTS. THEY HAVE OPENLY ADMITTED THAT THE SCREWS/BOLTS IN QUESTION WERE DEFECTIVE IN NATURE AND PRODUCTION, AND THAT THE SCREWS/BOLTS HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED TO AVOID FUTURE FAILURES. SOME OF THESE COMPLAINTS INCLUDED, AND RESULTED IN, VEHICLES LEAKING OIL IN THE ENGINE AREA, POTENTIALLY CAUSING FIRES IN THE VEHICLE. THE DEFECTIVE SCREWS/BOLTS POSE A SERIOUS POTENTIAL RISK TO THE SAFETY OF THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES, AS WELL AS TO OTHER DRIVERS WHO SHARE THE ROADWAY WITH THEM. IT IS MY STRONG BELIEF THAT THIS PUBLIC SAFETY RISK CANNOT GO ON ANY FURTHER WITHOUT PROPER...
SMALL CRACK HAS DEVELOPED IN THE MAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP IS ON. NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN INDICATED THERE WAS A RECALL (REFERENCE NUMBER 08V384000) ON THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS; HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP SAID MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT LISTED. CALLED BMW NORTH AMERICA CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND THEY SAID THE SAME THING. I BELIEVE BMW SHOULD ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS REPAIR SINCE THEY HAVE A RECALL ON OVER 200,000 VEHICLES AND I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. ESTIMATED REPAIR IS $1,500. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. *TR
