Airbags never popped open, door handle opened and is still not shutting correctly. Since my car was paid in full, I did not carry full coverage only liability so I did not file a claim. I paid the damages out of my own pocket and just this week I've paid the last $1200.00 of the part ordered for last of repairs. In total ive paid a little over 15,000 out of my own money.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 bmw 750li. While the vehicle was being driven or while parked, the driver side door failed to latch correctly. The contact mentioned that the failure worsened over the years and he currently has to hold the driver's door handle to keep the door from opening. When the failure first occurred, the vehicle was taken to irvine bmw (9881 research dr, irvine, ca 92618 (888) 496-3218), but was not diagnosed due to the diagnostic fees. Several months later, a recall was issued and the contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 17v328000 (latches/locks/linkages). The parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. The failure mileage was 150,000. Vin tool confirms parts not available.

The vehicle jerks when going from stop to drive. At times it is so severe that I think the car has been hit from behind. Also moves very slowly when proceeding from stop to drive. This problem is less noticeable while on the highway going at fixed speed. The problem is during traffic drive. Have been struggling with this issue for approximately three years. Dealer unable to replicate problem; however as soon as I drive car, it immediately kicks. Getting worse with time. Another problem is the door latches. All my door latches are faulty. The rear passenger cannot be opened from inside and if opened from outside, you run the risk of it not locking at all. All doors have similar issues.

Bmw 2006 750li in 2013 the doors open up after driving to wife job to drop her off, after doing so left the parking lot made a left u-turn, front passenger door open up unexpected! Second time my mother was in the rear passenger side lucky all had the seat belts on! I took the car to bmw dealership in bayside they told me its wasn't the software it was the hardware in the door, and that this recall wasn't for my problem. Cost $1345.00 now in 2015 they blame it on the door handle malfunction, which this part is not in the recall, some say latches, locks, linkages are covered but not door handle so I had to pay again for the second time this was $1645. 00 for the rear door! Funny have two more doors to go! So bmw decided to come up a part that is not named in the recall so the customer will have to pay for it! My opinion! The door don't smell of new paint! Just saying! If the door open up while in motion with the locks activated how is not coved by this recall when it clearly says door latches, lock, linkages,

Driver side door lock actual operating inconsistent it will not go all the way down or up when unlocking everytime. When button is push to lock it click twice and not go all the way down or up as stated before. I get a click click and lock doesn't move much either way. This is a safety hazard that I need to deal with immediately so im writing to ask you has there been a recall concerning this problem as I have read this is a common problem with other bmw owners as well. This is a car my wife drives as well as my daughter and I would hate to think what might happen if there was a accident.
