1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2008 BMW 3 Series

Failure Date: 01/29/2009

A little while back an error message came up on the dashboard of my car saying there was a malfunction with the tire pressure monitor. Not long after, I left my office one night; I get in my car with my coworker and begin driving. As I drove we both heard a screeching noise from my car and the car was struggling to accelerate, cars behind me begin to honk and drive around me leaving me in a very dangerous situation where a car may hit me or my car. I was stuck in the middle of traffic with my car almost completely disabled. The next day I had the car picked up from my home and dropped off by a service center. They call me a couple of days later saying there was damage done to all the tires of the car and the pressure monitor for the tires. The tires for this car are special tires with pressure monitors to indicate when they are low on pressure or flat. I've only put 6500 miles on the car and driven it with a lot of care under normal conditions. The service center is saying I inflicted the damage and they want me to pay for it. I had begun speaking with friends who have the same car and they all said they are experiencing the same problem. Please look into the situation and respond as soon as possible. This can be very dangerous.
