| Mechanical Jack problems |
While using the factory jack to change a tire, the jack became unstable due to the small base that is provided and the car fell off of the jack. The jack was being operated on an asphalt surface. This was a near miss accident that could have easily trapped me under my car. The car is a 1997 740il BMW.
