1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 04/08/2018

Hello theres two recall for BMW 3 Series that need to done ASAP but when I check the parts are not yet available and it's a safety issue that need to fix immediately.

2 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 07/18/2014

I was going over a small bump in the road at 30 mph and my engine mount failed. All four aluminum bolts sheared off and the engine dropped. This drop snapped my passenger drive shaft (half axle) in two pieces. I think BMW has a serious problem with the strength of the engine mount hardware. The engine mount bolts should be stronger. The failure mode is dangerous.
