Unknown Or Other problem #1

I went to unlock my BMW 750 li driver door and get in but once I closed it would not lock close at all, nothing I did worked. Eventually had to take my children to school holding the driver door with one hand while driving with the other. Not safe at all. I have the soft close feature on my car, so I noticed it was not latching on after a little detective work. So not only does my driver door not shut, but I can't even unlock or lock my doors by either using the key remote or the unlock/lock button inside. Very dangerous, and I can't believe there is not backup for the doors if the soft close feature is not working properly. This is not the first time I've had issues with the soft close doors, on the driver side rear door I have issues with as well. I have to hold the handle out and close for the soft close feature to "catch" the door. Very unsafe and requires a recall.

Unknown Or Other problem #2

Have a 2006 BMW 750i and was out running errands. I stopped at the dry cleaners to get my clothing. I only turned the vehicle off for about 10 minutes while I went inside the dry cleaners. I paid for my items and went to restart the engine but when I put the vehicle in reverse no movement happened. I shut the vehicle down completely and restarted it. I put the vehicle in r for reverse and it switched back to p for park. The vehicle again was turned off and restarted and it did the same thing nothing. I called my spouse and he was able to put the vehicle in reverse by edging the vehicle while in reverse mode. While my spouse was backing out of the parking space the vehicle jerked. I often notice that if I park on a hill and go in reverse the vehicle jerks and makes a loud noise I just had the vehicle serviced recently and according to the inspection that the BMW service did the transmission is good.

Unknown Or Other problem #3

I own a 2006 BMW 750li. I started having problems with my driver side door several weeks ago. My driver door would not shut. Yesterday, I was at the grocery store, went back to my car, used the remote and the door opened. Got into my car and my door would not shut. I tried to use the automatic lock and it did not work. I used the key on the driver side and waited until I heard it catch, this reengaged my lock so I was able to close the door.

Unknown Or Other problem #4

Consumer complaint regarding daytime running lights on 2006 BMW 750li. The consumer believed BMW should be required to make daytime running lights a default option on the vehicle.
