When we called the dealership in amarillo texas, autoplex BMW, we were told by the service manager kendra that we are welcome to buy new cars from them but they will no longer honer warranty or recall work for anyone with the last name daneshfar or who is related to or affiliated with dr. Daneshfar. Is there any assistance you can give with this matter? daniel b. Daneshfar MD 972-896-9823 cell mino daneshfar (best person to contact) 806-340-3296.
The contact owns a 2011 BMW 550i. While driving unknown speeds, a fuel odor was detected in the rear of the vehicle as well as smoke in the front of the vehicle. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump failed. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to critz BMW savannah (7009 abercorn st, savannah, GA 31406) where it was again diagnosed with a fuel pump failure. The vehicle was repaired again. The manufacturer was notified and informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 16v746000 (fuel system, gasoline). The failure mileage was 120,000.
Regarding: n63 fuel pump failure on 2011 BMW 550i gt VIN # (last 7) c209835 dear NHTSA recently I had a serious issue relating to the fuel delivery system on my 2011 BMW 550i gt. I was accelerating on a busy freeway ramp with my two young sons aboard, and my car went into limp mode. This put us in a precarious situation when at the moment I needed brisk acceleration, my car was unable to achieve even 40mph. It almost caused me to have an accident. I had no choice but to get this issue serviced at BMW of san francisco since this is my daily driver. When all was said and done the bill came to a little over $2100 which included about $450 in diagnostics. Now that the dust has had a chance to settle, I'd like some recompense on the following issues. �the high-pressure fuel pump failure is safety related and should be covered under the same warranty as the low-pressure fuel pump which carries an extended 10-year warranty on these cars and, which also has a tendency to fail at inopportune moments �in closing, this car was always serviced at the dealer, and went through the customer care program a couple of years ago. I feel that BMW should also cover these fuel pumps as part of this program and I'm asking for you to refund the cost of this service. �please register my complaint, if enough people experience this issue and register each incident, BMW has a customer reimbursement program and I would be able to get my $2086. 25 back for this safety related repair.

Our car's electrical panel lit up before the car stalled on two separate occasions. The first time, BMW replace the battery. The second time, BMW replaced the alternator. 12 days after being serviced by BMW, our house burned down due to a fire originating on the front left side of the BMW. That afternoon, my husband had come home from work, parked the car in the garage, and turned it off. The fire started within 30minutes of being shut off and parked. We received a letter in the mail informing us our BMW was under recall for a malfunctioning fuel pump injector.
In-tank fuel pump, is creating a gas odor inside the car.
