Just came across this article! I think I know why they R bursting into flames! I drive a BMW 2012 X3. Several months ago I was preparing to leave for work & my car was parked in my garage. I opened the passenger door to put my purse & lunch tote on seat & there was white smoke swirling from my iphone car charger that was plugged into my cigarette lighter. I immediately unplugged it & it resolved the problem. Had it started during the night my car & condo would have been torched! I didn't report this to BMW, but took the charger to at&T & requested a replacement thinking it was defective! maybe not! sounds like it's a BMW issue😳 I'm not sure about when this actually occurred, but it was within the past year!
