general problems of the 2012 BMW 528

N20 ?? ??????.

Car engine caught on fire while driving today and stopped. No smoke or other issues prior. Worried this is related to the recall issued by BMW recently, however my car is not covered under the recall yet. The car is currently located in vancouver canada. It was purchased in tulsa, ok.

While driving on the grand central plwy, queens, NY, a drive train motification came on and stated to drive moderately, right after the oil light came on. We were near a gas station, and added a quart of oil. The oil light went out, the car started without hesitation. We decided to go home, we got off the highway about a mile out, the car just stopped went into park and could not start again. It would crank over, but not connect. We were on a four lane road, luckily there was no one behind us, it could have been a terrible incident. The car was towed to a BMW dealership in great neck, NY and we were told it was either the engine or the timing chain and it was not worth fixing. The car was then towed to my mechanic, who stated there was a technical warning #n20 & n26 regarding the timing issue. Hoping something can be done.

The vehicle lost power, while in motion, in the middle of the road after accelerating. The car gave an error code of drivetrain malfunction. My car lost power in the middle of a busy city street, and it could have easily led to a terrible accident. Possibly related to NHTSA campaign number: 16v746000 but my car was not included in the recall.

Car begin to stall on traffic, drivetrain malfunction light appeared. . Took it to BMW dealer my fuel pump replace with new ekp module- which is the same recall that BMW issued in 2017 which included the model/year vehicle that I have.

I was driving on the road and I accelerated a lil bit faster to beat the traffic light and then my car loss power and stalled out and I got stuck in the middle of the bridge and I was causing traffic the power train malfunction and the fuel supply light cam on and the charge battery light came on I try starting it but it wouldn't start and the fuel supply light kept coming on and some wiring problem was going on when trying to start it my tv screen would turn orange and the speedometer where the mph/gas/temperature/and rpm would twitch like some electrical problem.

I bought a certified BMW and had continuous issues with my engine, constantly refilling the oil, even after service. After taking this to the dealer, I was told that everything was fine and there weren't any issues. All of this finally came to a head-on Sunday, 6/21/2020 when my car finally came to an abrupt stop. After towing, I was told that this is a timing chain issue and would cost me $7,400 which wouldn't necessarily remedy the issue, I heard this could reach towards 15-20k. I find this hard to believe after having only driven this car on avg 8k/year and having roughly 84k miles in total. My experience with BMW has since been painful to say the least since. I've had this towed twice in 2 days, been given an ultimatum on either fixing the vehicle or buying a new one - when asking for a loaner, I was told that I needed contact enterprise and reserve one on my own. I've owned multiple german cars and never had to deal with this level of unprofessionalism.

I was driving on the freeway and my car suddenly stopped running and shut down on me mid freeway! I stepped on gas pedal and nothing! it turned off on me and wouldn't turn on! now it turns but gas won't work! I believe there is a problem with the gas pump of something regarding gas fuel! I had to call my car insurance to tow my car when I became stranded on the freeway.

Warning for chassis stabilization is on, I encountered not being able to accelerate and had the car towed. I was on a main road and I got rear ended immediately after I was not able to accelerate and I had my hazard lights flashing.

I was merging onto a highway from another highway when all of sudden the car decelerated out if nowhere and a error message displayed on my dashboard fuel system error/ drivetrain malfunction engine speed will be reduced. The car acted as though I had absolutely no power as I coasted to a safe place off the highway.

Was driving doing 30 mph on a no traffic city street. . And the car started shaking then the engine light came on. Put the scanner and code p0087 is what it read.

While driving, my car stalled suddenly without giving me a prior warning. It put me in an extremely dangerous situation. BMW diagnosed failure in the fuel supply system. This must be investigated. This problem has also seen in other BMW models. I have 80000 miles on my car. The car is always serviced by BMW dealership.

I had just purchased a car but a month ago I was driving to lunch and I was at a stop sign when the light turned green I started to go the car started shaking and smoke was coming out of the front under the hood I had just an oil change so I took it back to the oil change shop. They could not figure out why the engine blew and I had to take it to a different BMW shop where I have to purchase a rebuilt motor and pay for the repairs. I can request all records from the automotive shop if needed.

Car shut down without any warning , it will cause a major and serious damage, happened with another family member own a same car.

Car stalls while driving on the highway and message pops up on the screen saying �fuel supply full drive performance not available,drive moderately and car shutdown and won't start. After an hour or so it will start back up . Took it to the shop twice but no codes . This has happened 3 times.

The contact owns a 2012 BMW 528xi. While driving 10 mph, the engine stalled and the "fuel supply performance not available drive moderately� warning message displayed. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.

Drivetrain malfunction light came on and now the car takes a long time to get up to any decent speed. Probably 0-35 in about 10 seconds. I was advised by a service center that timing chain failure is imminent and I would need to pay $8000 to replace the motor on a car for which I owed $11000, that at the time was only worth about $4000. As of today, it's worth about $800 with a $3800 balance on the note. Overpriced scheduled maintenance and costly repairs were all performed as they should have been.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 BMW 528i. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph the fuel supply light illuminated and the vehicle started to stall until it eventually the power turned off. The contact waited a few minutes then was able to turn the vehicle back on and proceed to drive. The same failure occurred twice. The contact took the vehicle to dealer BMW of monrovia 1425 mountain Ave, monravia, CA 91016 stated that the vehicle was not included recall 16v746000 (fuel system,gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 53,500. Am.

While driving, the car started to hesitate, didn't accelerate, and shut down. While turning out of the gas station onto the major road, it stalled. I had to put the car in park and then tried to restart it. After the third try it restarted. Once after starting the vehicle, the car started to shake violently and a message came up about the powertrain.

My BMW 528i 2012 I bought used in April 2015. In November 2015 my check engine light came on. Then it went away , but a week later it came on and another light saying the coolant was low. I took it to be topped off that did not work. My car went from yellow zone to red severe when driving home with my kids on a busy street. My car begin to overheat . I took it home immediately . The car loss all power it would not drive faster than 25 mph . I knew what ever it was going to be costly. My car sat for a month until I thought I had enough money to fix. Low and behold I took it to a BMW dealership there have been one campaign for thermostat and one recall on the oil filter housing. There has seem to be an issue I was unaware about. The dealer is saying because of the coolant mixing with oil and the car overheating there is possible engine damage. 20k worth of damages . I hoping BMW helps because my car is at the dealer still because of this horrible malfunction. I have attached a thread I found online that BMW sent out to all the consumers in July 2015 that I was not made aware of.
