One problem related to rear suspension springs has been reported for the 2012 BMW X5. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Was driving at 60mph on the taconic state parkway with my family on flat pavement when I heard a loud pop from the rear of my sav like tire blew out. Pulled over thinking a tire popped. Saw nothing so I kept driving, I immediately noticed something wasn't right with the suspension in the rear of the truck. Had the truck towed to a shop, both of the rear springs broke in different locations. The passenger rear spring sheered off at the bottom of the spring. The driver side sheered off at the top. I have not taken any pictures yet because it is in the shop but I can get them later this week.
