My vehicle went on limp mode I'm pretty sure it has to do with the transmission gears. My passenger side door looks like the air bag wants to pop out.

Hello, I have a 2006 BMW X5 (5uxfa13566ly46244) that has a transmission issue. It has started by rolling on hills and shifting funny both in city and on highway. It then started not moving much when accelerating as I was coming off a highway exit and continued through town. It has 120,000 miles. Having done research, attached below is a link to 4 related recalls. Please advise me as to which recall this is and how to proceed to getting it repaired. I look forward to hearing from you soon. .

Brake booster and master cylinder failed in June. Not covered under recall since a recall had not been issued for the 2006 models. Shortly thereafter the water pump began leaking coolant. Again, not covered for 2006 models. Now there is a severe leak in the power steering pump. All should be recalled. Already spent over $4k in repairs for a vehicle that, given its price and claims of extraordinary german engineering, should not have been necessary. Very disappointed.
