18 problems related to other fuel system pump have been reported for the 2014 BMW 328. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 2014 328d f31 three weeks ago while turning into a parking spot at a grocery store parking lot at low speed, my 328d shifted to p mid turn, and the engine shut off. Upon trying to restart it, it would crank but not turn over. (thankfully, I was in a parking lot and going at slow speed - and not on the interstate). We had to manually get it shifted into neutral to be able to push it into a parking spot. Upon further inspection, it was determined that the high pressure fuel pump has failed. (thankfully it doesn't appear to be disintegrated as some others have reported). All open recalls have been repaired. This vehicle has been very well maintained, and great efforts have been taken to ensure only quality, fresh diesel has been pumped in the car. BMW has offered an extended warranty for this (not cheap) part. However, it's only up to 10 years or 120,000 miles, and my vehicle is at 128,000. I am incredibly grateful that no one was hurt, injured, or worse in this incident. But given the high frequency of this happening amongst other 328d owners, and the safety implications (many times on the interstate), I would expect that BMW would recall this vehicle and get these parts replaced before anything worse happens. It happened quickly and suddenly with no prior performance warnings, codes, or lights. In fact when running a foxwell schwaben 14020sch scanner, no codes are being returned. An additional safety concern of course is that this problem is not preventable with traditional diagnostics. My google research shows the bosch fuel pump was recalled in other models, but the recall exempted the diesel variants. I can't imagine an item prone to failure, that's not listed on a replacement schedule. There are multiple lawsuits out there on the bosch cp4 fuel pumps. (however cp4. 2 seems to be more reliable than the cp4. 1).
Tl-the contact owns a 2014 BMW 328-I. Ther contact stated that while driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle lost acceleration. The contact put the hazards on and pulled over to the shoulder. The vehicle was turned off and then restarted normally. The vehicle was driven to the dealer reeves BMW, 109 e fowler Ave, tampa, FL 36612, ( the failure occurred two more times on the way there ), they determined the fuel pump failed and needed replacement. The vehicle is currently being repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000. Bp.
Vehicle cruising at 70mph on the freeway when the car stalled out with no warning. It simply went into neutral and cut the engine, rendering the vehicle hard to control since power steering and braking were not working. The car broke down again without warning on a city surface street with a speed limit of 45mph. Independent mechanic diagnosed that the high pressure fuel pump imploded, sending metal throughout the entire fuel system. Again there was no warning and braking/steering were affected.
When car was in motion it sputtered, started losing power, and when I pulled over the engine died and wouldn't restart. Dealer diagnosed it as failure of fuel pump, with BMW required repair to include replacement of entire fuel distribution system at estimated cost of $11,400.
My car has stalled twice on the highway and had to be towed for service as it would not start. The error in the system was for the fuel pump. There has been a recall for my same year make and model for this issue related to the fuel pump, but my VIN was not included.
While proceeding at 50 mph on heavily-traveled 2-lane country road, the engine cut out leaving the car with no propulsion. I was able to coast to the driveway of a local farm and come to a stop safely off the road. My repeated attempts to restart the engine were unsuccessful. I then called for a wrecker which towed the car to the BMW dealership. The dealer subsequently informed me that the fuel pump had failed (repair work was under warranty). Note: I purchased this car new in 2014. After this incident, I performed a google search and found that my year/model BMW had been recalled for a fuel pump issue [NHTSA campaign 15v189000]. I never received that recall notice and to the best of my knowledge, am not aware that the required work was ever done.
I was driving home and car stops running I mean completely stops running cars and truck swerving to keep from hitting me stuck in the middle of the road. As I look up information about BMW recalls I find that a recall has been gives non serval cars like mine in 2015 and BMW won't fix my car unless I pay $1600 for a new fuel pump. C.
Without any warning, the vehicle lost power suddenly/ abruptly stopped on a busy city street. The vehicle almost get slammed into by other vehicles traveling behind it. This was potentially a cause for a fatal accident. BMW dealership informed that the cause was the sudden failure of the fuel pump. Vehicle is at 39,900 miles, & is cover by BMW certified pre-owned warranty.
While accelerating my 2014 BMW 328d I heard a grinding noise and the car hit the brakes so hard that the seat belt pinned me against the seat and my chest hurt after that for a couple days. I called BMW roadside and the police to assist with traffic since I was in the middle of the road, was late evening and raining also. The police officer tried to move the car but the wheels were locked and was unable to put it in neutral or move. While getting out of car he tells me that I am lucky in his own words "on this weather on the freeway you would've been dead by now". Also the tow truck driver had the same line as the officer and he dragged the car on the bed since the wheels were locked. The car was taken to the dealer and BMW diagnosed it as "fuel pump blew up internally and distributed metal shavings throughout the entire fuel system and through injectors. " 4 injectors need replacement along with the fuel rail, the fuel pump and repairs made tot the entire fuel system including the tank. BMW will cover everything since the car is still under warranty ( I am at 45 k miles)! most traumatizing experience of my 40 years life in a 50k+ car! BMW never warned me of possible fuel pump failure problem with their diesel cars and no car should pin you with the seat belt against the seat unless it's an accident!.
While driving down the interstate on oct. 22, 2017 my vehicle turned off in the middle of the road displaying an error saying "drive train malfunction". The car went from going 60mph to a dead stop. I was stranded in the road while cars were zipping past me at least 60mph. I was in some serious danger if it wasn't for the fast response of the tow truck to get me out of there (the police were called as well to do traffic control but the tow truck showed up before they even got there). The vehicle was towed to a BMW dealer. They ran some tests and told me it was a fuel pump problem. They said the fuel pump broke internally and distributed metal shavings throughout my entire fuel system and through my injectors. All 4 injectors need replaced along with the fuel rail and the fuel pump and repairs made tot the entire fuel system. My car is only at 66k miles. I did some research to see if this problem was recalled because this is a very unsafe problem to have. After looking, I saw that a recall was sent out for all BMW models except for the 328d(diesel). Why is that? how do you claim something is unsafe on a car using the same parts that just got recalled but excluded the diesel model. I have read something stating there was not enough complaint towards the diesel model but the 328d was not produced nearly as much as say the 328i, so obviously it will have fewer complaints. I can see right now 5 pages of complaints about the same safety issue I am having that says otherwise. Now I am paying upwards of $16,000 dollars due to a safety issue. This doesn't seem ethically correct on anyone's end. How is there no resolution to this problem? we are going to let people come to a complete stop on the interstate an risk a major accident. I can't believe this has slipped through the cracks when all other models were recalled for the exact same problem!!.
High pressure fuel pump failed causing catastrophic damage to entire fuel system, requiring replacement of entire fuel system including fuel pumps, fuel lines, tank etc. Stall occurred on busy street which was a near death experience that could have resulted in accident / injury / death. Most terrifying experience of my life. Took car to crevier BMW and dealer stated that there was nothing I could have done to prevent the incident. 2014 2 series, 3 series, and 4 series all have been recalled for high pressure fuel pump failure. The diesel model appears to be the only one not covered in the recall and clearly is defective.
The contact owns a 2014 BMW 328d. While driving 50 mph and slowing down to make a turn, the vehicle suddenly lost all power and the check engine warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was towed to steve thomas BMW inc (411 e daily dr, camarillo, CA 93010 (805) 482-8878) where it was diagnosed that the high pressure fuel pump failed and released metal shavings into the fuel system and engine. The fuel system needed replacement. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact researched online and found NHTSA campaign number: 15v189000 (fuel system, gasoline), but the VIN was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.
2 of 4 injectors have failed at or before 40000 miles I think the problem is the fuel pump, they have been recalled in the gas models check eng. Light came on fuel mileage droped by 35% did not drive anymore till injector was replaced.
Going about 60mph, my car completely loses power and shuts down. Power train malfunction loss of power flash on the screen. Ive had the car for 20 days, and at 52000 miles. 2000 over my warranty. BMW is auotibg ne $5,000 to fix the high pressure fuel pump and system, fuel rail sensor, and fuel rail pressure valve which all ultimately work together. But BMW has already recalled all other 2014 328 models for the exact same fuel pump problems im having except the 328d model was the only one left out????! BMW makes very few of these models to begin with, so naturally there arent going to ve as many complaints with the 328d if there are fewer produced. Its common sense. Looking through the complaints on safecar. Gov 98% of the complaints on the car ultimately come to some sort of fuel system failure causing loss of power and total shut down. At 60 mph and 2 babies in my back seat it was more than scary. Im disgusted with BMW leaving out and not recalling the 328d when they did all the others. I mean what does it take to get some answers around here on this when there are multiple upon multiple complaints?? I mean I got on my phone immediately and diagnosed the problem before sos even came on my speakers just off of the terrible reviews and complaints people are saying off the internet alone! the BMW service center also told me all of that exact year and model that they have had in there lately have been due to the same issue!! this is a cost I cannot even afford at the moment, especially for a vehicle 2000 miles out of warranty. And is basically a brand new car and to already be faulty?? I'm afraid to even drive it again once it does get fixed, being that they are replacing the parts that just failed!! with the exact same parts?!!! what to just fail again, and take the chance of next time on a busy road when it shuts down,actually having a collison with a vehicle instead?!.
At 55k miles in April 2017, in fast lane of freeway, drive-train malfunction message displayed with service engine lights. Car lost power as I was fortunately able to change multiple lanes to shoulder as car lost complete power. BMW sos did not function. It took 3 tow drivers and 3 hours to manually override system to get car in neutral to safely put on truck. BMW advised they would have to jack car and remove transmission panel to manually put in 'drive' which was not an option on the narrow shoulder of I-10 in CA. Diagnostics revealed high pressure fuel pump failed and 'exploded' sending metal particles through entire fuel system. Dealer advised over $10k in parts however BMW covered under the 'CA emissions warranty. ' entire fuel system replaced (tank, lines, injectors and pump). Unsure if it is related to the ultimate failure of the pump but all injectors failed and replaced in 2016. 42,162 mi / September 8, 2016 engine light -faulty cyl 3fuel injector fault code 24bd00 �replaced #3 44,495 mi / October 13, 2016 engine light-fault code 24c000 - replaced injectors 1 and 2 & 4.
Tl-the contact owns a 2014 BMW 328 xi. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number:15v189000 (fuel system, gasoline). The failure mileage was 16,842. Ss.
Fuel pump failure at 13,000 miles. Car stopped running on a suburban road at night requiring towing to a BMW dealer. There is a recall for BMW fuel pumps but my car wasn't listed under the recall. BMW did replace the fuel pump under warranty.
I was driving along with my twin 6 year old daughters in my 4 month old 2014 BMW 328 drive m sport when all of a sudden the car stalled with very little to no warning. The car was not able to start. Luckily we were in a parking lot when this happened. Had I been driving on the highway it could have been a much worse situation. How does a brand new vehicle have this problem. Dealer said they think it is a fuel pump failure. A fuel pump failure on a 2014 vehicle received in August of 2014?.
