3 days after receiving an oil change and brake pad change, while driving on a city street at approximately 25mph my car spontaneously switched into neutral and i could no longer accelerate. my dashboard stated that i had a drivetrain malfunction and that maximum output was not available. i proceeded to take my car into bmw in order to get a diagnosis. when i received the diagnosis i was told that my engine was non operable and i would have to pay ten thousand to change engine. the technician stated it was because of an internal engine failure, and that the reason for the failure was unknown but it was more than likely a bad oil filter. my vehicle has had two recalls concerning oil and i am concerned that it is a manufacturing defect. thank you
On three separate occasions, when my car was stopped at a light or stopped in bumper to bumper traffic, the car reved to 6 or 7000 rpm and then accelerated on its own. i could not stop the car and i hit the car in front of me. there was very little damage to my car, and little damage to the othei do not feel safe in this car as i know there is a problem and will happen again.
