BMW X3 Change Vehicle

"This is the same issue as previously described as a water leak."

"I have a squeak/rattle in the back hatch area whenever the road is rough or I put the car in a frame twisting situation, (turning into a driveway at an angle)"

"Strut assemblies were loose"

"Numerous trips to the dealership ended up having us have a rear hatch locking mechanism replaced."

"trunk hatch latch....locks but rattles...2 attempts by dealer to repair...occurring again"

"numerous trips to the dealer to fix rattles in tailgate"

"The rear door did not totally seal with the frame, causing the door to rattle at times. Adjustment has reduced the problem. However, when the car is at an angle, sometimes the rear door will not completely shut."

"Squeaks come from the moon roof when the weather is cold. No problem when the weather is warm."

"Makes noise when driving. Drives my wife crazy. BMW can not find the source."

"In the dash. BMW can not find it."

"We have the dual pane sunroof. The sunroof creaks CONSTANTLY, to the point that we have to close the shade portion to just dull the noise. It has gotten louder over time. The dealers have done nothing to quiet this problem and seem to ignore us when request a fix. This is my wife's car, and she says she can live with it. If I drove it daily, I would have replaced the fricking car. BMW does not want to admit there is a problem."

"Air noise from sunroof"

"Rattles in the rear of the vehicle"

"The dual sunroof rattles and squeaks incessantly. BMW wants THOUSANDS to take it apart and fix it. We documented this while under warranty, and they did nothing. Noises kept coming back. Now they want LOTS of money to fix it. This started in the 2nd year of ownership. Thank god it is my wife's car. She tolerates it. That rattling drives me NUTS! I would get rid of the car and get a Lexus."

"Moonroof rattle over bumps"

"Rattle of interior covering of moon roof when it is slid back. Does not rattle if closed and covering the moon roof"

"There seems to be an inordinate amount of door gasket squeaking whenever the body flexes. i.e. when driving on uneven surfaces, speed bumps, potholes, etc. The back hatch door latch always sounds as though it is not locked in place tight enough"

"The following things needed to be brought to the dealer due to squeaks and rattling: Windows side mirrors hatch locks doors. This car has been to the dealer 8 times for a total of 60 days due to various problems"

"Sunroof squeaked"

"Wind noise is much more noticeable than in my 2006 Lexus RX400h, that has 188000 miles. This is not a quiet vehicle."

"Doors and windows allow for wind noise. Poor sealing."

"At highway speeds the wind noise is much more noticeable than other vehicles I have owned"

"Drivers window resealed the door not an issue anymore"

"Rear camera failed-fixed under warranty"

"One time the screen and entire entertainment system went out. It took 3 or 4 times shutting off and restarting the car for the system to come back on. Took it to the dealer and they could find no issues."

"The "infotainment" system has gone out repeatedly. The first time BMW service said I needed a new car battery, which they installed. The next time they said it needed a system update, which they did with much difficulty. The next time they said I needed a new head unit, the system itself, which they installed. The nexttime they installed another head unit. The next time they installed another head unit. This last time, they installed a brand new head unit, as opposed to rebuilt, which apparently the others were. I have not had any problem since, but the last repair was just before the stay home order began, so I have not really had much opportunity to see if it continues to work."

"does not always work..ongoing issue..BMW always seems to think it is operator error..but we've had other BMW's and the electronic issues with Idrive and infotainment system were always a problem"

"the commands are too late (for example the direction to make a turn takes place after the street is already passed). The BMW dealer noted this to be a software issue but it never was resolved."

"it never quite worked right - oftentimes the instructions come after I have already passed the intersection. The BMW dealership notes that this is a software issue that they are unable to correct."

"Updates to maps are hard to obtain. No notifications, no offers. BMW simply wants you to buy a new car after 3-4 years than to update nav in existing car."

"not user-friendly, after complaining that it is not accurate with directions , dealership updated the software, now it didn't work ANY LONGER with my new Apple11 mobile phone like it did before the update. Nobody at dealership and according to them at BMW USA could fix or have an explanation , went on for few months back and forth until I just gave up in"

"The GPS does not provide instructions timely- for example it would state to turn right after the street has already been passed"

"BMW's customer service (specifically the company) is the worst ever. When the dealer could not fix the problem, I contacted BMW and was basically told... too bad and they blamed it on Apple. Proving my phone worked on other showroom BMWs didn't matter. The issue; my iPhone 6 plus, paired fine, but when a call was made or received, the handsfree feature would fail. It became a safety issue for me as I could not rely on the car's handsfree, which required fumbling with the phone to get it to work. After a multiple trips to the BMW dealer. they refused to write it up any longer. With the assistance of a different dealer's sales person, I was able to fix it. It proved to be a problem with multiple phones paired on the system. Clearing all paired phones and re-pairing just my phone seem to solve it. Given BMW's poor attitude and handling of the issue, I don't plan to ever buy a BMW again."

"The Bluetooth software had to be replaced since i could not call out."

"Phone randomly does not connect. Or forcibly connects even when I don't want it to switch from current BT headphones. Might be iPhone problem too, but when you make a phone call at least iPhone asks if you want to use headphones, speaker or car, but not in case when you are already on a call or listening to something - turning on car automatically switches phone to the car."

"Jetter-bug can not be paired thru there system. I found this out about 1 year after perchase"

"Intermitent loss of connectivity. Need to re boot the phone for the bluetooth to work at least once a week"

"The AM radio is bad, At night, it cannot get distant station that my Chevy Impala received clearly"

"The voice control never worked on this car as on most european cars I have driven"

"we have been unable to get the voice control feature to work for me or for my husband - the responses have been non sensical"

"don't always work"

"Cannot use this and dealer never showed me. Was never a problem with previous (GM) car"

"Check Engine Light. Was DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) that had to be replaced. Usually this should only be changed at 200,000 km, but we only had 23000 km 2 years ago when it happened. O2 sensors had to be cleaned at 11,000 km in 1st year. Though DPF was covered under warranty, if I had to pay for parts and labour, would have cost around $4500."

"EGR coolant leak, subject to a recall (Eventually) but it took several service appointments to have it resolved"

"The issues is with the Diesel Exhaust Fluid, and the cars computer."

"malfunction of one injector. diagnosed by bmw while driving. replaced under warranty"

"particulate filter sensor failed"

"flagged an SES light which the dealer scanned and replaced sensor at time of routine oil change"

"false change the diesel additive warning system wasn't functioning properly"

"Check Engine Light came on several times, required $1700 repair to replace NOx sensors. Covered by warranty"

"It started on a road trip. I noticed the lit indicator for motor malfunction was on & checked the book. It said to continue driving unless it was red. I had it repaired at the dealer and they replaced both sensors. The repair including diagnostics was extremely high $1400."

"This happened in 1st year of ownership. Check engine light again. O2 sensor was dirty, so had to be cleaned. Though covered under warranty, if I had to pay for it, would have cost about $300 to service and clean. (Not replace)"

"Issues initially with the diesel system resulted in several check engine lights. It was eventually fixed and we have not had a problem in a few years."

"sensor causes car to become inoperable"
