I PURCHASED MY 2001 BMW X5, NEW IN SEPT OF 2000. I BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT PRETTY QUICKLY. THE MOST PLAUGING PROBLEM WAS THE GAS GAUGE. IT TOOK BMW 5 TIMES TO FINALLY FIX IT. 2/26/01 14461 MILAGE, 3/9/01 14512 MILAGE, 5/16/01 18566 MILES, 8/29/01 24493 MILES, AND FINALLY 2/26/02 37268 MILES. THERE WERE A NUMBER OF OTHER ISSUES WITH THE CAR, WATER PUMP, LOWER CONTRO ARM (TWICE), AND VARIOUS OTHER NON-ESSENTIAL ITEMS. I TRIED TO ENACT THE LEMON LAW, BUT SINCE THE 3RD TIME ON THE FUEL GAUGE WAS AT 18500 MILES, I WAS TOLD IT DIDN'T APPLY. NOW AFTER 4 AND A HALF YEARS, I HAVE 114,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND I WAS JUST TOLD THAT THE MOTOR IS SHOT AND WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $11,500. I CAN'T SINK THAT KIND OF MONEY INTO A CAR WITH THAT MANY MILES BUT...

IT TOOK 11 DAYS FOR BMW TO INFORM ME OF A SAFETY-RELATED RECALL (BETWEEN THE TIME RECALL APPEARED IN THE LOCAL PAPER (JAN. 31) AND NOTIFICATION I RECEIVED IN THE MAIL (FEB. 10). BMW SHOULD BE APPROPRIATELY "PUNISHED" FOR THIS INDIFFERENT ATTITUDE TO PUBLIC SAFETY. THANK YOU. P.S. THERE SHOULD BE A REQUIREMENT TO PUT AN EXACT MAILING DATE ON THESE RECALL LETTERS. DR. CETINGOK. *AK
