2016 BMW X3 xdrive28 I I pulled into a friend's driveway and applied the brakes approximately 2 feet from the closed garage door. My car "leapt " into the side of the house, then careened into the garage door. The car accelerated with such force that both airbags were deployed. I am sure that I did not hit the accelerator by accident. At the close proximity to the garage I could not have accelerated to cause such a violent crash that deployed the airbags. My car was declared a " total loss ". This was one of the more frightening experiences of my life. It all happened in a split second. I am thankful that I was not in traffic.

August 19, 2017 I pulled into my driveway at a very low speed and applied the brakes to park. The car aggressively accelerated even though my foot was on the brake. The car went through my neighbors fences and it finally stopped between two garages behind my property on the next street. I could not open the doors or windows for a minute or two. I do not feel safe driving this car again.

When I turned on the driver's side seat heater, the seat heater burned through and burned a hole through my clothes.

When I turn on the car, the electrical dashboard has a delay. I turn on the car, start to drive, the dashboard will delay in turning on (happens at least 1/month in the last 1. 5years). Winter 2015/16 doors would not lock manually or by key fob. In fear of theft, I drove home and the doors would not lock. Additionally, dashboard notification said driver side door was ajar while driving (took pictures). Lastly, trunk release is constantly jammed and can¿t be opened manually, trunk release button, or key fob. From time to time I will not have access to the trunk and have to go through the back seat. I have been to my local BMW dealership in summer 2016 and the problems still occur.

While driving my 2008 BMW X3, the driver side heated seat was turned on, than shorted out, burned through the protective layers, a stinky smoke created, melted my leather seat, and partially burned my jeans and leg. Due to the year and miles on the vehicle, BMW would not fix any of the parts.

My BMW is 8 years old with approximately 125 thousand miles and both rear coil springs are damaged. This is a BMW, the frame of this vehicle should not be damage in this type of car. BMW are built to embody the highest quality and safety standards but one of the most important part of the car body is not functioning properly. There most be a deficiency on this part and as far as I know it should be a BMW original part. When I bought the car in 2009, it was a pre-certified car, when I asked what that meant the sales person stated "that all parts were checked and are originals BMW parts". I bad other type of vehicle for over 10 years and never had this type of problem, so never expected this from my BMW. I will appreciate your assistance on this matter, I believe this part is deficient and BMW should be paying for the repairs. I do expect more from them as they advertise their cars to be more durable and higher quality. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Our vehicle was stopped behind a single vehicle at a red light. Without warning, the vehicle accelerated and struck the car immediately in front of our vehicle. After striking the vehicle, our car then accelerated again into the intersection and was struck by a vehicle moving legally with a green light through the intersection. Our vehicle went to the curb where it accelerated once again which caused it to jump the curb and crash through a steel fence and into a light pole where it finally came to rest. There were three acceleration events with the driver's right foot off the gas pedal. The vehicle was deemed a total loss by the insurer, geico and was removed from service.

My wife was driving the car and she heard a clinking sound, it was the sun roof glass that shattered. My wife stopped at a hardware store taped the glass, and covered it with plastic. The glass could have flown off and damages cars( including ours) and injured people.

Turning into a driveway with a boulder on the edge/corner. With the drivers side seat heater on, the seat burned a hole thru the leather and made me turn abruptly and bumped the boulder. Damage to the fr. Bumper, inner fender and wheel. Left side (drivers) seat bolster has a burn-through hole.

Repeated flooding in driver-side back and passenger front. It has been the vapor seal along the door, top part of door near window, seal along the windshield and finally from the sunroof leading to drain leading to interior of car. I have been fortunate that no electrical issues have incurred, but due to the high risk of that happening, wanted to report the situation. This has been ongoing for over a year (fixed various issues with flooding every few months). BMW acknowledges that the X3 has water issues but that it is no fault of their's. I understand a vapor seal needing to be replaced once in a while- but this is far and beyond happening way too frequently. Just don't want any of the larger possibilities to come into play.
