One recall was for air bag deployed I had the light for it on but it was on when I got it the original owner said it popped on him well he was parked and he never fixed it or did anything . . . The other was a part of the computer pretty much in charge of cooling the car down it can make fire from melting and cause unfixable/ to constant issues . . . . Well my hole engine stopped working it was getting too hot miss firing coolent mixing with oil and started to smoke it was white smoke that came out didn't smell like anything crazy maybe mostly coolent and pretty much it had electric issues since I got it so the recall issue makes sense so I took it in to BMW riverside they said they will fix all that and contact me it's been almost 2 weeks I live in my car I'm disabled and a mom I can't even go drive and see my child over this I have no income disabled type thing and no word what's wrong they said they might charge me a few of 287 but I'm disabled no income yet so that's out it tells me it will be fixed free and if the dealer won't fix the electric system on everything in the car and not charge me later like they said they will then I want to sue big time and if that's not dun when clearly safety was in danger fire issues and crap I want the same car but a new one off the lot not brand new car or fix then I'm sueing for my losses that simple.

The engine coolant pump is affected in my vehicle. There is a current recall issued on my vehicle with no available remedy. The recall was issued back in August, which means it has been 6 months. This is my form of transportation to work and also to school. I have contacted my local dealership and they are not sure when they will get the part in. They want me to pay $195 per hour for a diagnostic first to see if they can expedite the part needed. With this being said they will not offer me a loaner vehicle and says I am responsible for my own form a transportation. I was driving my vehicle on February 11th around 5:45pm when my vehicle suddenly stopped in the middle of a roundabout. I yielded oncoming traffic, thankfully I was able to shift over into the grass in time before anyone else entered the roundabout. My check engine light came on and it started to overheat, which I have never had that issue since the recall was issued. It started smoking from under my hood so I let it cool before I attempted to drive it again to return home. The following day I was able to start my vehicle up and I took it to take 5 to get an oil change and a coolant flush thinking that may be the issue. The mechanic advised me since the coolant they use is standard coolant and I need premium he would not perform it. He ran my codes and the issue that popped up was the current recall on my vehicle. This is the first time I have experienced any issues since the recall has been issued. I am now left with a vehicle that is not able to be driven.

My car has the same issue as other BMW 328i made in 2011. However, when I put the vehicle VIN number in my car does not pull up this as a recall. The camshaft timing bolts are kicking off a check engine light. There is already a recall on this for other cars like mines see campaign 23v707000. Not sure what to do, any help would be greatly appreciated.
