Steering Wheel problems of the 2002 BMW 325

Two problems related to steering wheel have been reported for the 2002 BMW 325. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Steering Wheel problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2002

The steering wheel has locked during operation of the vehicle on three separate occasions. The car becomes completely inoperable. My vehicle, a BMW 325i, was purchased brand new on may 7, 2002.

2 Steering Wheel problem

Failure Date: 12/18/2001

The steering column is kinked an inch to the left. I do not mean the wheel is turned to one o'clock, I mean the left side of the steering wheel is 1 inch closer to the dash board than the right. I cannot believe that the column is where it should be under the hood. The dealer said that a number of coupes have this problem. When I spoke to BMW they said talk with the dealer. I have asked for a letter to say this is safe and BMW has refused to issue such a letter.
