2024 BMW I7 Electrical System Problems

Yesterday again my 2024 I7 x50 bmw suddenly engaged its auto brakes. I have been in communication with different dealers trying to repair this problem as it almost cause another accident. Luckily there was no cars behind me and there was no cars ahead of me. The cars door also would not close. I have video evidence of this

This is the 4th time I am having issues with this car. Major safety issues. Yesterday during during on the 405 freeway. It suddenly started to rain, the wiper malfunction while in traffic and pouring rain. A week before this incident, the steering of the car kept moving suddenly out of my line. This time my son was in the car. These dealerships do not really care to even look at it, they drive the car for 2 miles and return it with a no problem found issue. Enough is Enough. The last time it was taking to the dealership after the automatic brakes would engage suddenly, they advise me that car was taken to a mechanic which is ridiculous. I am not in communication with BMW head quarters and they keep telling me to wait for a decision. This is not a waiting decision.

This is has been continuous, yesterday my car braked on the freeway. Suddenly with no obstruction. The car behind me almost crashed into me and it would’ve been a very tragic event. I took it to the dealership and they don’t do anything, all they do is give it back to me. Yesterday also has loss of power too. I have alerted them many times, they keep saying to take it in but they don’t do anything and I don’t feel with this car. Please let BMW know because if something happens they will be heard responsible

The driver then lifted his foot from the brake and the vehicle accelerated in reverse despite the driver NOT having his foot on the gas pedal. 3. The backup camera did not engage or show the backup view when the car was moving quickly in reverse. 4. The driver slammed on the brake just as the vehicle struck a tree with the rear right bumper and panel. In summary,...

This is the 5th time my cat suddenly brakes in the middle of traffic with no obstruction. I keep taking it to the dealership and they drive it for 1 mile and give it back. I am fed up and I have my family in the car. Last time I took it, they said something the car doesn’t recognize a driver This is a electric car.

I have now experienced multiple instances where the vehicle suddenly brakes on its own while driving at normal speeds, without any obstruction or hazard ahead. This is not only unacceptable — it's extremely dangerous, putting both myself and other drivers at risk of serious injury. Despite bringing the vehicle in twice to the dealership, the issue persists. I continue to receive dashboard malfunction alerts, and the automatic braking problem has not been resolved. Each time, I am left without a vehicle, impacting my ability to work. I did not purchase a $100k+ vehicle to live in fear of sudden, unpredictable, and life-threatening malfunctions. Today, while driving, the vehicle completely shut off in motion, creating a highly dangerous situation. This follows multiple previous incidents where the car automatically braked without cause and displayed repeated malfunction notifications on the dashboard. I have brought the car to the dealership twice, and yet the...
