2025 BMW IX Forward Collision Avoidance Adaptive Cruise Control Problems

Driver was in parking space/nearly fully parked (her foot was on the brake coming to a full stop and about to place the car in park), when the car’s self drive function or cruise control engaged on its own. It then rolled up the hill, and into the trees. Thankfully no one was hurt (3 people in the car - 2 adults and 1 child) and the car stopped while leaning on a tree, otherwise it would have rolled over. She never uses cruise control, nor any of the self drive functions on the car at all. In her words, the car was “unstoppable”. The speed of the car at that time was a near crawl into the space, ready for a full stop. When the self drive/cruise control engaged, the car jumped over the curve in front of the parking space on its own. No button was pressed by...

At low speeds, the cruise control engages, causing the vehicle to accelerate. Stepping on the brake disengages the cruise control as it normally would. I have had this leased vehicle since March 2015. I have reported the issue 4 times to the dealer. Each time they interrogate the computer and tell me there are no errors. I have researched the internet, and there are numerous complaints about this potentially life-threatening issue. "Point of interest." This is the same dealer who insisted my BMW 7 Series had nothing wrong when it was burning a quart of oil every ten days. Eventually, the engine was no longer manufactured. I'm taking the car back next week; they are taking the issue to BMW.
