  1. april 2014: An explosive fire started in our BMW X5 a few minute after my wife and two kids swithed of the engine and left the car. The movie was taken a minute from the fire started, the car was totaly flashed over in 10 minutes.

    Worst of all is that the fire was the second in a row, just a few kilometers after the car was returned back from the BMW authorized workshop due to fire in the engine, at that time coused by emissionsystem and broken exhaustpipe at the throttle.

    Top management at BMW group of Sweden was contacted the day after the second fire, the case is still unsolved and my family has not got a final respons from BMW a the time of 21. Juni 2014

    My family has had BMW since beginning of 2000s, we thought we invested in quality and safety according to the premium brand BMW considered to be - unfortunately we were wrong...
