I have nothing to hide and will always share my experience with people. That's why I try being active on here because everyone deserves to know the full picture before making a purchase. Thank you

True, just seems to be some major issues that I haven't had with any of my other BMWs and is concerning. I haven't made a firm decision yet, as I was very impressed when I test drove a 50i, but if these quality control issues keep popping up, I will probably pass on the G05.

Not at all, simple comparison from actual posts if you could pull the data and show positive (any) to negative (any) you will see an offset. No where would I say you are here to complain, and just like you I have a recent post about my warranty items, its a boring read but same as you its transparent to share with others. My point is one should not base choices on something so one sided.

Personally, we havent had one issue with ours. I'm usually here to see if there cool things i dont know about or things i can do to "customize" Your situation is definitely not a common and how BMW is handling is extremely bad rep for them. |

It was directed to me, and I agree a lot of people come to vent on forums. My F25 had zero issues, my F15 was flawless, not a single problem (shouldn't have traded it on the Audi S6), and my G01 has had one major issue that was fixed and no other problems, so all the issues that have been posted about are concerning. I am hoping that BMW can figure out how to fix most, if not all, of these problems since many of them seem widespread. The BMW would save me $11,000-$15,000 over the Cayenne, so that is an added bonus for me to stay with BMW.

Here my list of bugs after 2 weeks owning a new X5 G05.
1. Misaligned mirror (passenger side) 2. Leather of rear seat (looks like the right one has a bit crack) 3. Driver seat back (seem like it has a small thing keep poking my back or Im just too sensitive) 4. Driver side right shoulder area has annoying sound (guess it from the plastic area hold the seat belt) 5. Wireless charging heating my phone so much 6. Apple carplay sometimes disconnected and hard to reconnect 7. Digital key cant be set up 8. Atm card key (my dealer said it's not included and need to order but the other dealer confirmed it must be included) 9. Cruise control at 110km/h cornering is a bit scary then I need to take control, other than that is great. That're my list so far. Other than that, everything is great so far. I love the driving feeling and when doing the corner, the feeling was much better than my previous lexus. |

And to be honest, the dealer where to buy it did not spend much time to explain about the car when delivery, and try to avoid when I call them to ask. Then I decide to take it to another dealer for service which is nearer my place as well. |

Having bought well into double digits brand new cars where the majority are BMWs and spent significant time on different forums I don’t see much unique here in terms of dealer and manufacturer responses. It is my experience that if you have a near bullet-proof lemon law case and professionally and calmly provide the service manager with the supportive documentation ( service records ) and discuss options the car will get bought back. Short of that the car will be fixed for any/all issues that the dealer get approved for warranty claims by the manufacturer.
I know from experience how extremely frustrating it is when a new car has issues but these things happens to different degree with most cars. The only year 2000+ MY cars I owned with absolutely zero warranty issues are my only two Japanese cars and my E90 M3, no wait I did replace a failed throttle actuator at 40k miles... What is unique here is the HUGE list of issues, I think my max. is 4 with a gawd awful 1999 Grand Cherokee Limited ( that I happily dumped after 2 years. ). I can only imagine how I would feel with the list in this thread amounting to 5x of that, this must be Alfa/Rover level... To add I never had any of my warranty claims denied by BMW. I hope things get fixed one way or another. Last edited by solstice; 06-14-2019 at 08:44 PM.. |

Android, are you a member of BMWCCA? They do have Ombudsman that can assist you with issues, it seems that you may fall into where they could be of some help. May be worth a try before having to pay lawyer fees to deal with this...

I would temper your expectations with the CCA Ombudsmen. They're all volunteers and assist when they're able. Some forum members have had mixed past results.

when I saw that I knew it wouldn't be helpful. As nice as the people and idea may be, nothing will get solved like that. I'll update you guys tomorrow when I speak with the BMW NA rep

I asked my case manager why some of the safety aspects aren't being fixed and this was her response. I'm waiting on a call once she's out of her morning meetings today.
I swear it's like they're trying to create a bigger problem

I'll ask her. She also said which things do I feel are warranty related, and I said all of them obviously... it's like talking to a wall lately.
