2008 BMW 328I Steering Problems

You guys have aluminum bolts that hold down the cylinder head they corrode or become loose thus pulling up the cylinder head and the head gasket is protruding out the front of the cylinder head causing oil and coolant to leak on to the belt causing the serpentine belt to slip off while it's raining and eventually causing a blown head gasket it's because of the aluminum bolts on the top of the engine that hold the cylinder head down the head gasket protrudes out the sides on the front where the camshaft sensors are and leaks onto the belt plus causing the belt to come off the track and possibly get sucked into the engine it's not something easy to get to or to fix for a person with low income

"SEAT-BELT LIGHT/TAKATA RECALL, IT SEEMS THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT LISTED AMONG THE VEHICLES RECALLED BUT MY AIRBAG LIGHTS HAVE BEEN COMING ON AND OFF AS WELL AS SEATBELT LIGHTS AND I BELIEVE THAT THE TWO SYSTEMS ARE LINKED AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR SECURITY REASONS, THE LIGHTS CAME ON AS THE VEHICLE WAS IN SLOW MOTION AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE PARTS REPLACED, ESPECIALLY IF THE AIRBAGS ARE MANUFACTURED BY TAKATA OR ANOTHER MANUFACTURER.

ATTENTION: BMW CUSTOMER RELATIONS ON, SATURDAY, 01/02/2016, AT APPROXIMATELY 6:30PM MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE FORT HAMILTON PKWY IN BROOKLYN, NY IN MY BMW 328I CONVERTIBLE. WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MILES PER HOUR MY CAR SUDDENLY STOP COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE TO TRAFFIC. IN ORDER TO EXIT OFF THE HIGHWAY SAFELY, I ALLOWED THE CAR TO ROLL TO REDUCE SPEED THEN USE THE HAND BRAKE IT TO STOP THE CAR COMPLETELY AT THE NEAREST EXIT, EXT # 5. AFTER EXITING I CALLED THE TOWING COMPANY. IT APPEARED THAT THIS INCIDENT WAS THE RESULT A FUEL PUMP FAILURE ON MY 2008 BMW 328XI WHICH ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC BURNT THE CONTROL MODULE WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. FUEL TANK FAILURE IS A HAZARDOUS CONDITION AND GIVEN THE FACT THAT A FUEL PUMP FAILURE RESULTS IN AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING, AND POWER...

I WAS PRESSING ON MY BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT AND I HEARD A LOUD THUMP FROM UNDER THE HOOD NEAR THE RIGHT SIDE. AS SOON AS I GOT TO THE STOP LIGHT, MY CAR STARTED TO RATTLE AND VIBRATE VIOLENTLY. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND STARTED MY CAR AND THE CAR WASN'T RATTLING ANYMORE. AS SOON AS I PUT IT INTO REVERSE, IT STARTED TO RATTLE AGAIN AND DID THE SAME WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE. THE VIBRATING GOES AWAY AS SOON AS I START DRIVING, AND IS ONLY NOTICED WHEN IDLED WHILE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. I HAD SOMEONE COME CHECK IT OUT AND WAS TOLD HE NEEDED TO DO FURTHER INSPECTION AT HIS SHOP. HE INSPECTED IT AND TOLD ME SOME BOLTS BROKE FROM THE ENGINE MOUNT AND THE LOUD THUMP WAS FROM MY ENGINE DROPPING ONTO THE AIR...

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ONE EVENING, MY 2008 BMW 328I COUPE BEGAN ACTING STRANGE. THE INTERIOR OVERHEAD LIGHTS AS WELL AS MOST ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS (RADIO, HAZARD BUTTON, ON-BOARD COMPUTER ETC.) BEGAN TO FLICKER ACCOMPANIED BY A TICKING NOISE IN SEQUENCE WITH THE FLICKERING. THE VEHICLE WAS ACTING AS THOUGH IT WAS ABOUT TO SHUT DOWN; THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO PULL OVER. AS I PULLED OFF OF THE ROAD, THE STEERING BECAME MORE DIFFICULT AND THE FLICKERING BECAME MORE FREQUENT. WHILE COMING TO A STOP (TRAVELING AT ABOUT 10MPH), THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF VITAL MECHANISMS SUCH AS STEERING, POWER, LIGHTING (BOTH INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR). THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT UNUSUALLY FIRM/STIFF (NOT SPONGY OR SOFT AS IT SHOULD FEEL). AT THIS POINT, THE VEHICLE HAD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WITH THE GEAR SELECTOR STILL IN "DRIVE". I ATTEMPTED TO RE-START...
