Lemon

[Ag4.8]

Well. Took my X5 in for third time today for airbag malfunction. Also mentioned saw a drop of oil-like fluid in garage.

They have been unable to cure airbag issue, despite talking with BMW Tech support. AND. . . . front diff seal has leak. Need to replace front diff!! This will take a week.

Tomorrow will mark first month on owning the car. Has been in too many times. 3rd time for the airbag. It's been in service about 10 days (plus the upcoming week).

I spoke with the manager. HE asked, Should I tell BMW you don't want the car back? He agrees we should proceed with applying for a "trade assist" and seemed confident it would happen. I told him I can probably lemon the car myself (airbag is a safety isssue). He says he expects to hear from BMW shortly. I am disappointed in the quality and hope BMW will step up and quickly replace the car. The manager said they have done trade assists before. Anyone have any experience? IF BMW agrees they either order or find one to your liking.

END of RANT. . . . for now
