Today I was driving normally on highway, suddenly the car notification kicks in, the driving assistances supported was reduced. Then I noticed the blind spot monitors no longer lights up, and tried ACC, the steering assist can't work either. Later I checked affected systems, almost all active safety protection were affected...
Does anyone had the same experience? Should I go to the dealership or wait a few days to see if it's just an software bug? Thanks! |

RJJJ, you seem to have some bad luck with this vehicle. How long are you planning to keep it, may I ask? Do you live in NJ or NYC?
Sorry that I'm not being helpful but I'm sure someone will respond with a potential solution. |

Yes, I had this happen on my first (2018) G05.
This is a common occurrence in very poor weather, and is caused by the cars safety camera being obstructed by water or dirt, at least that is what the dealer told me when I took it in to get checked out. It is yet to happen on my 2019 G05, so maybe they changed or updated something with the later model car. I also wash my car weekly and keep it very clean.Try cleaning ALL your vehicle cameras, including the side (mirror) and rear cameras. You would be surprised to the extent these are integrated into the safety systems of the car. |

Besides malfunction I know two reasons it may happened:
1. Storm as stated above. 2 Low battery due to short drives. If its a battery it will go away after 50 miles drive |

Regarding the repurchase, - there was, let's call it, a gentleman agreement between me and BMW of NA (no lawyers, courts or anything like this). In the first place, the car left the dealership with the problem fixed. So, BMW of NA gave two options: a) to accepts a monetary compensation for what had happened to my car; b) to repurchase the car at almost full price I had paid for it. I chose (b). |
