Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2011 BMW 535

BMW refuses to take responsibility of consequential issues caused my faulty fuel pump recall and is trying to charge me 21000 to fix. Engine reads maximum drivetrain output drive moderately.

Vehicle has stopped running multiple times. Most times it has stalled out while idling after a long drive and has been put in park. One time it just stop running while I was driving and I was in the middle of and intersection with traffic turning right. Another time I had a st udder while turning left which I looked down and got in a accident. BMW has told me this is the battery, low pressure fuel pump and the high pressure fuel pump which have all been replace; however I am still having the same problem.

Drivetrain malfunction is on may be due to a bad fuel pump or engine coils.

Nhtsa recall number 16v746; in-tank fuel pump: this fuel pump consist of 2 parts: a high pressure fuel pump (hpfp) and a low pressure fuel pump (lpfp). After contacting BMW pacific in glendale ,CA. I was told that they will replace the low pressure fuel pump only. My question: is it only one part of the fuel pump included in this recall??? after contacting my mechanic (a BMW ex master technician employee), I am concerned that not replacing the whole unit (hpfp and lpfp unit fuel pump) will keep the problem alive and it will give the false impression that the problem was taken care of. . . . . My car has shown uneven start ups in the morning and engine codes related the fuel pump malfunction. This include in motion and stationary. . . .

I was driving my BMW 535 xi on interstate highway. All of a sudden cars gave a message of "drivetrain malfunction: contact your service centre". After that car's power reduced. After that whenever I apply brake, the car ignition stopped and car puts itself in neutral. I had to start the car around 8 times to reach home safely. After that I towed the car to nearby BMW service. BMW dealership told me that my car's high pressure fuel pump is not working. This is traumatic experience as I was on interstate and sudden stalling on interstate could have been fatal for me as well as my passenger.

My vehicle recently had the lo pressure fuel pump recall completed. I was hoping that it would correct the fuel related diagnostic trouble codes and the vehicle stalling and going into reduced power mode. However, this recall failed to correct these problems. I have now learned that my high pressure fuel pump is failing. My local BMW dealer informed me that this vehicle does not qualify for the extended free replacement of the high pressure fuel pump based on the VIN even thoe it is the same n54 engine that other BMW vehicles have that is covered under the recall. Symptoms, while driving my vehicle on slight acceleration I get a warning on the dash that states "reduced power mode" at that point the check engine light comes on and I loose power in the vehicle. At times the vehicle will shut completely down while driving. The vehicle has an extended crank time as well but always seems to start.

BMW recall campaign no. 16v-746 in-tank fuel pump. BMW ag has decided that the above fuel tank listed above is defective which relates to motor vehicle safety. This notice was sent in December of 2016, which stated the parts were unavailable. Although, the letter stated I would be contacted when parts became available. It is now eight months into year 2017 without this issue being resolved. Also, over time, the fuel pump connector can become damaged. If this happens, a foul odor may be noticed. This could also lead to a fuel leak during fueling, or when cornering while driving. The fuel pump could also stop working and lead to a no start or stalling condition. We have noticed, a faint gas odor and slight stalling with the vehicle, especially with starting and taking off. This has happened when the vehicle was stationary and in motion. When the car was serviced by BMW specialist, we were encouraged to get the fuel pump replaced in a timely manner due to the recall.

I have an open recall campaign with my vehicle's in tank fuel pump. It is been a nine months since the recall was initial identified and my vehicle has not been fixed by BMW. I called them up and brought the vehicle to the dealership but have to bring back the vehicle un-repair due to the fact that they don't want to fix it and with excuse of part is not available. When I call the BMW customer relation department last week June 14, they said the same thing again "wait, and call us back but no definite solution". We need a real enforcement car manufacture on the timeline the recall must be remediate when the recall was initially identified, otherwise consumer with recall vehicle doesn't have a peace of mind when driving a defective vehicle.

While filling the car with gas, engine off, fuel started pouring out the bottom of the car. At the dealership I was told that the fuel pump had a hole in it and that part of the wiring harness had melted. Extremely dangerous situation that could have resulted in fire, explosion, injury or worst. I have the repair order if needed.

My car stalled while driving around 50 mph on a 4-lane highway on 13 may 2016. It stopped in the middle of the road blocking traffic. I was able to back the car off the road (into oncoming traffic) with much difficulty because all systems were shut down. I called aaa and waited. The car started after I waited about 20 minutes and I cancelled the aaa tow. This happened several times before, the last time was when I had about 70,000 miles on the car. The car was recalled, I took it to the dealer and it did not happen again until last week. I now have 135,000 miles on the car. This is a very dangerous issue. I had to authorize the prescribed repair. This seems to be recurring defect that BMW should repair in all of these cars. Dealer tells be that it is a fuel pump and filter problem. This is not what was repaired at 70,000 miles.

Fuel system. Latley I have been driving me 2011 Bmws 535i and have been having some scary problems with it. Last week I was on the highway driving 65 mph when I noticed the power of car was turning on and off. (headlights, dash lights, car power everything) it then completely shut off on the freeway. Luckily I was close to the shoulder and pulled over. Prior to this incident, my car was left at the BMW dealership in san diego for a full inspection and nothing was brought to my attention. After doing some research, I see that I am one of the thousands that are experiencing this same problem. Fuel pump and injectors gone bad. Please push for a recall!.
