BMW 530I 2007 car safety problem was reported on Nov 10, 2009.BMW 530I 2007, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6) i ([xxx]) am filing a complaint on behalf of my mom ([xxx]) who owns the 2007 bmw 530i in question (vin #: [xxx]). english is not her primary language. according to my mom¿s account, on 11/10/2009 she pulled her car into the driveway and waited for the garage door to open. but as she let go of the brake pedal, the car started to accelerate very quickly without her intention. she tried to apply the brakes, but the car¿s motor was just too powerful to prevent the car from continuing to accelerate into and almost through the garage wall. we reported to bmw of north america and asked them at the time weather unintentional acceleration and or some problem with the electronics governing the car¿s accelerator was responsible for the accident and they took the vehicle, tested it, and concluded that the vehicle¿s diagnosis returned no such error. i explained to them that with drive by wire technology and all the electronics governing the car, there could have been some soft of a short-circuiting or problems with it. they told us that there was nothing they could find wrong with the vehicle. we were told that it was my mom¿s fault and that she might have mistakenly pushed the wrong pedal, which my mom vividly remembers she did not because once the car accelerated she quickly try to push the brakes, which were overpowered by the car. our insurance had to pick up the bill. i understand that bmw would not be willing to admit fault immediately and it is also possible that the diagnosis system cannot detect such problems. a professor at showed on abc news that the toyotas system cannot detect the problem (see video from this web link: http://www.egmcartech.com/2010/02/23/expert-tells-abc-news-electronic-flaw-results-in-sudden-acceleration-in-toyotas/). but in light of the issues with toyota, we wanted to report this accident and place a record that the 2007 bmw 530i might have an unintended acceleration problem. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash.

BMW 530I 2007 car safety problem was reported on June 19, 2008.BMW 530I 2007, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with WHEELS . i purchased a new 2007 530i with light alloy rims and "run flat" tires from weatherford bmw in berkeley, ca. in june 2008, with only 10836 miles on my odometer i was advised that i had to have my two rear rims replaced at $491.19 each for a total of $982.38. the part number for these rims are 36-11-6-760-616. i was notified by my independent mechanic that some of the rubber on the my rear tire tire was separating and flapping thus the noise in my rear tires. when i took my vehicle for tire replacement at the tire firm, i was notified that the same two rims that were replaced in 2008 at 10836 miles was cracked (now at 77633 miles). i attempted to resolve this matter with the bmw dealer but was promptly dismissed by the service techniciab and told "tough luck" and if i wanted 2 new rims, i would have to pay for them. since these rims are very important to my personal safety and i find it very difficult that as bad as the highways in california are not a+, that these rims would fail at 10,836 miles of normal driving even with the "run flat" tires. i feel that this is a manufacturer's safety issue since this situation appears to be almost a common problem with these same vehicles, all with manufacturer's rims. since the safety of the passengers depends on the dependability of the rims and tires i feel it needs to be investigated by your department. *tr.Mileage was 10836 miles.
