A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

I was routinely emptying the trunk of my 2008 BMW 528I on August 1, 2009. I had to return to the cab and my right calf brushed against the exposed chrome tailpipes for no more than a second. The tailpipe was so hot, I got a second degree burn about 5 inches long. I went to the emergency room to have the wound dressed as it was blistering and I was concerned about infection. I have contacted BMW but they deny there is any danger. This injury could happen again to me or another party. See photos of injuries at bmwtailpipeburn.blogspot.com.
