What is wrong
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. The brake lamps in these vehicles are controlled by a switch activated by the movement of the brake pedal. This switch could fail internally, causing it to remain either in the "brake lamps off" position or in the "brake lamps on" position.
Risk
If this happens, the brake lamps either will not operate or will be continuously illuminated, regardless of brake pedal position.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the existing brake lamp switch with an improved switch.

Filed Dec 30, 2009 · Visibility · 90,000 miles · NC

I have owned a 2000 bmw 750il for 3 years now and throughout that time the windows have deteriorated to a point that creates a safety hazard. It is now hard to see out of all passenger windows and I have difficulty viewing when switching lanes. I have many close calls and have to roll down the windows to switch lanes. I have cared for the vehicle as recommended and with the current condition of the windows visibility it will be impossible to drive in a few years. As a consumer I have contacted bmw about the issue and they stated it was normal wear and tear. My 2000 bmw 750il has less than 120,000 miles and is less than 10 years old. I look forward to hearing from you. *tr travis speller
