This has been an ongoing issue, but I had another close call today so I am logging a formal complaint. The vehicle hesitates to accelerate after pressing the gas pedal. It often takes 2 to 3 seconds for the vehicle to accelerate. When the acceleration finally engages, it tends to be hard since I often continue pressing the pedal when the accelerator doesn't respond. So my choices are I either get hit by oncoming traffic or spin out of control at an intersection. The issue seems to occur when the air conditioner is on. This is particularly scary when making left turns at an intersection. If I have space to make the turn because oncoming traffic is far enough, the vehicle will simply not move at all or roll across the intersection for a few seconds before actually accelerating. I've had a couple of close calls already. I had all the software on the vehicle updated and no one seems to know what causes it. Don't know if true, but I also read on various websites that BMW is aware of this issue but does not intend to do anything about it. I guess there haven't been any fatalities yet. I hope I am not the first one.

Crossing the street---I had the gas peddle all the way to the floor (twice yesterday) and the car literally did not move and traffic was approaching. The car eventually moved forward. Problem---hesitation in the engine when applying the gas as I pull out to cross the intersection, slow down to make a turn, or just try to move forward with traffic after stopping. Also, as I applied the brake, when approaching a stop light, the car surges forward toward the car in front of me. These two characteristics happen frequently and are very scary. I do not trust the cars response to either the acceleration or the braking. It has been in the repair shop several times and I continue to be told "car is performing normally". This cannot possibly be correct.
