I was parking my car and there was a car that was car parked beside the place I pulling into to. I had backed up and when took my foot off the brake the car took off and struck the corner of the parked car. It literally took off. I had zero control of the car and it didn’t brake until after I hit the car. Where I was parking was on an incline that was going up. It happened again when I was pulling into another parking spot. I was not close enough to the curb and that car felt the same way. It felt like it was just going to take off. I just put it in park at that point. When I restarted it was fine.
I am experiencing recurring safety issues with my 2024 BMW i4 eDrive35 Gran Coupe. •On three separate occasions, the driver’s side door did not fully close, leaving a gap large enough for my hand to fit through. •At the same times, the hood (bonnet) also failed to fully latch. •During these events, the windows stopped working. •On one occasion, the entire main screen went completely black while driving. These are not minor inconveniences; they are serious safety hazards. A door and hood that do not close properly, or a blacked-out screen while driving, put me, my passengers, and others on the road at risk. I have already taken the car to the dealership once for these issues, but the problem has not been resolved. I have also contacted BMW North America twice, but my concerns about safety have not been directly addressed. In addition, I live with diabetes and other...
When: [XXX] approximately [XXX] AM Where: [XXX] coming down from office complex [XXX] While driving approximately 25-30 mph down a winding road with a moderate hill, my 2024 BMW I4 suddenly accelerated as if the accelerator pedal was suddenly floored, causing me to struggle to keep the car in control, and only several seconds after slamming on the brakes was I able to stop the car. No warning lights ever came on in the dash at any time. It was only luck that someone wasn't injur]ed or killed. Fortunately there were no other cars near, and I didn't run off the road or crash the car. I immediately drove slowly to Bob Smith BMW in Calabasas. They have the car and BMW North America is looking into it. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
My car when when my spouse was pulling in parking spot at local hospital suddenly accelerated. I did brake which didnt work and car flew across 2 parking lanes and landed in 3rd lane. Luckily there was no vehicles or persons crossing in the path of sudden acceleration. She has driven similar gas BMW 335 i for last 12 years. She has been driving this car i4 for last 11 months. Car towed to the dealer in Chattanooga and I have informed them to look into it and also check with BMW USA
The mount of the accelerator pedal of the car at the bottom broke off while driving, and the pedal fell to the left and got lodged behind the break pedal.
I encountered the safety issue on a test drive. The VIN which I supplied is typical of this model. The design of the gear selector lever makes it easy to inadvertently and unintentionally shift into Reverse, when Drive or Neutral is desired. A single click of the lever can engage either Reverse or the desired gear, depending on the engagement status of the brake pedal and the speed of the car. There is no Reverse gear lockout button, a standard safety feature on other vehicles. I almost backed into the vehicle behind me, when a red traffic light turned green. When the brake pedal is untouched, a single upward click of the selector lever engages a shift from Braking (B) mode, to Drive (D) mode. I had stopped for the red light in Brake (B) mode, and desired to shift into Drive (D) mode. I clicked the lever upward one...
