BMW 430I 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
lowWhile driving at highway speed on [XXX] I went to put my windows up. Without touching anything else my seat moved backward and I was unable to reach either pedal. Fortunately I was able to maneuver to a point where I was able to regain vehicle control. Obviously this was a life threatening situation which could have been disastrous. There was no auto correction by the vehicle. This was reported to BMW of Barrington , IL and serviced on XXX. No specific explanation has been provided. This is just one of many issues with this vehicle that appear to be related, and escalating in severity. I can't determine how they are related, if at all. I don't trust the safety of this vehicle and am not convinced BMW to date has performed a complete root cause analyses from the date the vehicle was put in service. I have requested BMW replace this vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
BMW 430I 2025 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
highWe were driving on a local road and saw the car ahead parked at the traffic light. We began to brake from a safe distance. The car began slowing but instead of coming to a full stop, the brake resisted, the car made an odd sound, and instead the car accelerated into the car in front of us. The Tesla in front captured the odd behavior of the vehicle on camera. BMW will perform diagnostics.

It is at the dealership, Wesley chapel BMW, they sent me a message that it wonât be ready today because there is recall and an issue but they have not told me what it is. I was researching and i saw whatâs called âsudden unintended acceleration.â
