1999 BMW 323I body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Cracked sub-frame at 104,000 miles. Dealership stated that it was caused by pot holes, I do not drive over potholes and take care of my vehicle very much so. I am not wreckless, and I have every maintenance record available as well as other warranties. I have had numerous issues with this vehicle including transmission and clutch at 75,000 miles, electrical issues and light indicators turning on for no reason, airbag lights light up at least twice a year, engine light coming on at least once a year, and finally a cracked sub frame. This vehicle has been nothing but cost and is dangerous to drive at this point.
Numerous ball joint replacements. *ph the clock bulb, thermostat, convertible top tensioner and power steering intake were replaced.
Vehicle was involved in an accident where it was struck by another vehicle, the impact resulted in vehicle being cut into two pieces, (possible structural problems), the accident resulted in 2 injuries and one death.
