Engine Shut Off Without Warning Problems of BMW 528

Driving down the street when all of a sudden car says drive train malfunction I was stopped at the light on a one way street on 11/20/2020 when the car just died no warning just shut off wouldn't start couldn't put it in neutral blocked traffic for about 90 minutes before I could get a tow truck to remove my car. I have a 2012 BMW 528xi with about 90k + miles on it I was so scared because it could have happens to me on the highway or in the middle of the street and I would no have been able to get out of harms way.

Bought used 2013 BMW 528i xdrive 0n 4/2018 with over 94k mikes. Car in great condition and always serviced. At 123k miles, warning signals came on ("oil pressure low, drive train malfunction, stop immediately and tow to dealer"). Was driving about 30 mph on street in neighborhood and pulled over and as I coasted to stop, the engine shut off prior to my stopping. Wheels locked upon stop. Towed to repair shop. Timing chain jumped off track and ruined the engine. No signs leading up to this event. Remanufactured engine will cost between $12-15,000. Cost more than car. I had to scrap it. (can provide documentation from repair shop when/if you need it).

My 2013 528i has some problems with the motor. I purchased the car around December 18 some time with about 76000 miles and only had it for 2 days an problem's came . First it was saying I drivetrains malfunction so I turn the car off an tried to crank it about 4 times an it finally crunk . About 3 days later same problem occurred so I contacted the dealer but they couldn't help me . So I left the car sit for a day an came to crank it an everything was fine . About a week later on the way to work my car just shut off an the, dashboard symbol came on saying low oil pressure to the motor . I read on this on others complaints an seen some similar problems. Took my car to the BMW dealership in raleigh early in January they said I may need a new motor an it would cost to just go inside the motor to actually see the problem car dosnt crank but tries to turn over.

I have got the vehicle around December and I only had the car for two days thene I start experiencing problems. I contacted the dealer immediately they told me they had no problems with the car before which is hard to believe. The car purchase was a guy that worked at the dealership. After I started calling for questions the guy ended up disappearing and nobody would help me. They also false advertise the vehicle saying it was a 528 x dr, gave me the incorrect mileage and I was supposed to give me a warranty but I didn't receive any help . So I contacted the BMW dealership got it towed there and they told me I need a new engine. I will be driving in the car would just shut off sometimes then the dashboard tells me drivetrain malfunction. So I had to continuously crank the car and in about 3 to 5 minutes it would start. One day on the way to work I was driving in the whole car just shut off it was saying low oil pressure and drivetrain malfunction try crack the car wouldn't crank . Let it shut for a while one day I sprayed some starting fluid in a air flow sensor it crunk but still has a hard knock and noise it says low or pressure and drivetrain malfunctions.

My wife and I was driving on 95 a very busy highway when a light came on saying low oil pressure to pump we were in the left lane trying to get over by the time we made it to the right lane the car had stopped we just made it we couldn't get over as much as we would have like the car just shut off I thank god we made it off the highway it could have been worse the car didn't give us a warning about oil was low the only warning we got was a few minutes before the car cut off even will the light came on about the pump the oil level in our car was still normal no kind of sign of oil being low and the car wasn't do for a oil change we kept up with the maintenance now due to no warning about the oil being low my engine is gone.
