Takata recall I was in a serious accident on the interstate going downward on the ramp with my 2007 X5. My tire blew off the rim causing me to lose control and eventually strike the side wall. Was wearing seat belt during accident, seat belt did not restrain me and head hit windshield. Debris from airbag in steering wheel cut me in various places. Not all of my airbags deployed, only steering wheel and curtain. Second accident with a BMW truck where either only a few deployed or none at all. This issue really caused a safety concern with me because I was pregnant at the time of accident and wasn't fully protected at all. BMW are too good of cars for this major flaw. Also, I contacted BMW around December 2015 in reference to recall and was told that they would call when the part came in. Contacted them multiple times afterwards and was told BMW still hasn't sent part out....updated 06/13/17 updated 09/19/217
Original equipment alloy wheel developed a full thickness crack on the support spoke. This was under routine driving conditions and not found after an accident. Found on routine owner inspection. Car has 49,000 miles. Suspect this was a manufacturing defect given normal local and highway driving conditions. The alloy wheel was replaced with BMW replacement at my expense. Not covered under warranty. Photos and original wheel available.
