ON 4/10/2021 AROUND 10:45 AM I WAS ON EAST INDEPNDANCE BLVD AT A RED LIGHT. AS I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE MY FRONT PANORAMIC SUNROOF BLEW OUT. AS A RETIRED NAVY VET I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING SHOT AT AND SLOWED THE CAR DOWN MAINTAIN COURSE AND REALIZED THE AIR RUSSHING FROM MY SUNROOF.

Owner report 11471469 · 2022-06-28 (June 28, 2022)
Front Driveshaft between transfer case and front differential, is available upon request. The driveshaft broke at the universal joint, once it broke it damaged the upper and lower oil pan making a hole the size of a softball, as it kept rotating broke transmission casing also draining oil from transmission and engine components. It caused the tires to get soaked in oil and slip and spin out. Luckily no cars or objects were near me at the time, if there were this would have been a big safety concern to the driver and passenger of the car. No war…

Owner report 11563136 · 2024-01-02 (January 2, 2024)
The chasis function is limited on this vehicle due to failed right rear air suspension. Leaking right rear strut, and failed air compressor. Additionally, as a result my car needs an alignment. There was a service bulletin in regards to this exact issue in which BMW offered an extended warranty to repair vehicles free of charge up to 8 years/80,000 miles (MC-10215743-9999.pdf) My vehicle is currently at 92,000 miles but within 8 years. I never received the notification. If I would have I could of had the vehicle inspected and fixed within…

Owner report 11663003 · 2025-05-25 (May 25, 2025)
Service Bulletin SI B11 09 17 Same issue with my car, 2017 BMW 750i xDrive. Drivetrain malfunction issues identical to SB noted. My car has a manufactured date 07/2016, one month after SB dates covered, yet same part numbers are used in this month as well. Not fair that other vehicle owners with same part numbers get this covered, as I have to pay over $3k for repair, to then wait IF a SB gets releases, then have to chase BMW file a RP claim. Wastegate issues across all G11 models!
