1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2020

Nhtsa: please help, our 2008 (besides all lost time for the repaired recalls) our 2008 BMW X3 is suffering the exact as in the recall below; NHTSA 14v176000, the BMW dealer replaced the camshaft position sensors due to "engine problems"July 2020,miles 135,000 this did not fix the problem. That BMW dealer, nashua nh then called us to say it would be $4,500. 00 to fix. Unsafe to drive, it lost power by 70% or greater-my wife, and I have been nearly _rear ended when this occured at higway sppeds-and slower local speeds ie 65mph or 30 mph limits. . . . . We had to stop driving for life safety. 1. How did BMW get away with not including the other yrs with same engine safety issues(ours 2008) and why did a BMW serv. Advisor replace parts for over $1000. 00 knowing that a BMW serv. Bulletin had cited the manufacture defects? 3. Please help with recourse? I am sending title copy for ownership, I am awaiting copies of repairs by BMW (they are being slow / delaying) I am collecting all repair receipts at this time. Again: the vehicle was moving and lost power, stalled and eventually started with lost power.
