Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2015 BMW 328

Two problems related to other fuel system pump have been reported for the 2015 BMW 328. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/07/2019

While driving on the interstate or over 50 mph the vehicle will not allow me to give it gas and a "drivetrain malfunction" comes on. The car then goes into limp mode and the engine shakes. The vehicle will not allow me to give it gas and before the "drivetrain malfunction" comes on you can feel the gas or fuel pump jerk. Then I am no longer able to give the car gas, limp bode happens, engine shakes, and the car puts itself in neutral. I have to find a way to get in the emergency lane without getting hit and turn the car off for a few minutes to reset the lights. But this has happened on more than one occasion. I have taken it to a body shop twice, still not fixed.

2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2016

While in motion on an interstate the car suddenly started to sputter and lose momentum. At the same time, a warning alerted us to a "drive train malfunction". Luckily, we were in the lane closest to the side of the road and we were able to limp off the road and out of traffic. The car was towed to the nearest BMW dealer in las vegas where the problem was determined to be a failed high pressure fuel pump. The car has less than 17,000 miles. After some research, we found that BMW has a history of fuel pump recalls although none for our model year. This incident was quite dangerous considering the car suddenly being inoperable at a high rate of speed on the interstate. Were we not in the right hand lane, the incident could have been deadly.
