Engine and engine cooling
“The contact owns a 2014 BMW 750I. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the low oil pressure warning light illuminated. The contact stated that an oil change had been performed several days before the failure. The contact topped off the oil. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the contact was advised to complete an oil consumption test for 1,000 miles and then return to the dealer with the vehicle. The failure reoccurred and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The vehicle was diagnosed with a coolant leak into the engine and that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed about a class action lawsuit for coolant leaking into the engine. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 39,500.”
Engine
“Auxiliary Turbo water pump match the recall by part number I took vehicle to bmw dealer They only go by vin number so they refuse to help The part is on a recall do to circuit board and overheating N63 with a recall auxiliary turbo water pump Part # 11 51 7 629 916”
Structure
“DRIVER SIDE DOORS SOMETIMES WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE WHEN USING THE DOOR HANDLE FORCING ME TO RESET THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS FROM THE CENTER DASHBOARD CONTROL. I BROUGHT IT TO MY BMW DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT DOOR CABLES CAN STRETCH EVEN WITH NORMAL USE AND NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $580. I HAD A SIMIALR PROBLEM WITH PREVIOUS 2012 BMW 7 SERIES AND ONE ONE OCCASION I HAD TO DRIVE HOLDING THE DOOR SHUT UNTIL I REACHED THE SERVICE CENTER. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE A HOOD CABLE ON MY 2012BMW 750 AS THAT CABLE FAILED AS WELL AND I COULD NOT OPEN THE HOOD. THE PROBLEM WITH MY DOOR IS INTERMITTENT AND MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE I MAY BE TRAPPED IN THE VEHICLE IF I AM UNABLE TO QUICKILY OPEN THE DOOR.. BMW WAS UNWILING TO COVER THIS AS MY WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED. I WOULD THINK THAT MANY OWNERS MAY NOT KNOW OF THIS POTENTIAL PROBELM UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE AND SOMEONE IS INJURED DUE TO THE POOR QUALITY CABLES THAT BMW SEEMS TO BE USING IN ITS VEHCLES.”
