general problems of the 2005 BMW X5

Faulty check valve connected to brake booster leaks oil into brake booster causing contamination and loss of power braking. Recall issued for roughly 30,000 BMW X5 vehicles produced from 2007-2010 for a similar issue but none issued for this vehicle.

I currently have a BMW X5 2005, with 4. 4. VIN # 5uxfb53535lv16883. Brakes are not working properly. Brake system hardens when vehicle slows down and doesn't work properly until car is restarted. Same engine and same brake system in different model (740i) has been recalled to fix the issue. According to BMW service desk, the X5 models hasn't been recalled with same issues with the brake hydraulic system.

I just got my X5 out of the shop two weeks ago due to a engine oil leak which cost 1700 to repair and now the brake booster system has went out which is another 1200 to repair. This vehicle has had two recalls for this same problem however the 2005 was not included in the recall the first recall was for 2000-2002 and the second recall which was just in feburary of this year was for 2007-2010 obviously the fix did not work and they need to include all vehicles from 2000 until 2010. When I called BMW all the girl on the phone could say is your X5 was not included in the recall.

My breaks went out the lights goes on and off the wioers dont work the outside lights goes on and off at night I have a outrageous ciolant leak and mire I have drove the car in about 5 months or longer and still making payments now the car is completely dead I don't know what to do me and the kids gers soaked because I h a ve walk them to and from school everyday it sucks so im making payments for something I can use ive had coils replaced everything it vibrates really bad when I come to a stop light ibhave had no accident or anything just problems.
