Suspension Noise problem #1

Loud rattle from rear suspension, sounded like loose shock tower. Took to dealer, both rear suspension springs were broken. I avoid all road hazards and do not 'beat' my cars. BMW service advisor had a broken spring on her desk to explain the issue. It happens that often. Repair cost me $987. 38. I call manufacturer defect.

Suspension problem #2

My vehicle malfunctioned last week because of the fault harness. Vehicle had a slight fire and now is not drivable. BMW does not want to comply.
