I guess I am just worried that it means there are other things lurking around the bend with the engine. I mean, I purchased an X5 just a few days ago and it already has engine problems.
It seems like a crazy amount of hassle to go through for a certified pre-owned vehicle bought a few DAYS ago. BMW is putting their rep behind a used car when a dealer sells it as certified pre-owned. Now I can't trust this car is certified. I am glad they are making the repairs but how can I be assured that it was really certified?
Anyway, I talked to the used sales manager and he won't exchange for another X5 with same options.... there is not one available. He won't have it certified by another dealer. He won't refund what I paid for the car + the extended service.
He says the only options I have are:
- Take the X5 with the repairs that are covered under warranty, if it has more problems in the next 2 years, they fix for $50 under warranty
- Return the X5 and only get refunded the purchase price ( but not the lojack & extended service)
- Exchange the X5 for a more expensive X5 and transfer my options to that vehicle
