I am writing to report a serious safety concern regarding the 2022 BMW iX, specifically related to the malfunction of its safety system due to the software provided by Green Hill Software. This issue has resulted in multiple instances where the safety system of the vehicle locked up, putting drivers, passengers, and other road users at significant risk of accidents. On several occasions, while operating my 2022 BMW iX, I have experienced sudden and unexpected failures in the safety system. These failures have occurred during critical moments of driving, where the vehicle's safety systems are relied upon to prevent accidents and protect occupants. The incidents have almost led to accidents, causing severe distress and endangerment to myself and others on the road. Upon investigation, it has been identified that the fault lies within the software provided by Green Hill Software, which is integral to the functioning of the vehicle's safety...

1. The rear wiper has a frame made of plastic, with a simple T shaped connector. I have found it laying in my driveway 4 times now, and have only owned this 2022 BMW iX since November. If there is any resistance at all when you turn the wiper on, like some snow or frost, the T shaped connector will un-click, the wiper will tip sideways, and fall off the car. This could happen at speed if you engage the wiper with ANYTHING on your back window and could fly into the car behind you (have not experienced this yet...). 2, The Adaptive Braking can engage in very weird situations. Driving south on Rt 3 in New Hampshire (the Everett Turnpike, I think it's called) after dark between exit 5 and exit 4, I was in the middle of Rt 3's three lanes with NO traffic around me at all....

This vehicle was involved in a collision, none of the safety features worked. The front end collision warning did not go off. The automatic emergency braking did not engage. The Car jolted forward after the collision and did not stop, potentially risking another collision. The SOS or emergency collision BMW assist was not activated, there was no call from anyone from BMW after the accident. No warning lights or collision indicators went off prior to collision as they should have. This vehicle is puts the safety of others at risk if it fails to stop after a collision (regardless of the speed of impact) as well as quick acceleration post collision.
