BMW 335XI 2011 car safety problem was reported on Apr 09, 2012.BMW 335XI 2011, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with WHEELS . ON MONDAY APRIL 9, 2012 WHILE TRAVELING ON HAGEDORN ROAD IN EAST LANSING, MI, (APPROXIMATELY 3800 HAGEDORN ROAD) MY BMW HIT A POTHOLE THAT RESULTED IN A SPLIT REAR RIM, DAMAGED FRONT RIM AND BLOWN TIRE WHILE TRAVELING AT 35 MPH. THE POTHOLE WAS OF AN 'AVERAGE' DEPTH FOR MICHIGAN. (PICTURES CAN BE PROVIDED). INTERESTING IS THE AMOUNT OF TIME (WHILE PURCHASING THE CAR IN DECEMBER OF 2011) THAT THE SALESPERSON TRIED TALKING US INTO PURCHASING EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR TIRES AND RIMS. HE MENTIONED THAT HE KNEW OF MANY CUSTOMERS THAT HAD BLOWN TIRES BECAUSE OF MICHIGAN WINTERS AND POTHOLES. I DECLINED COVERAGE SINCE MY LEXUS WITH SIMILAR RIMS AND LOW PROFILE TIRES NEVER HAD A PROBLEM DURING THE FIVE YEARS I OWNED THE CAR IN MICHIGAN. I BELIEVE BMW IS AWARE THAT THEIR WHEELS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO EXTENSIVE DAMAGE IN NORTHERN TIER STATES AND THAT THERE IS AN INHERENT DESIGN FLAW IN THEIR PRODUCT. FURTHER, I BELIEVE THEY ARE TRYING TO FINANCIALLY CAPITALIZE ON THIS BY SELLING EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. *JS.Mileage was 7700 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WBAFU7C5XBD. Bmw 335xi 2011 problem was reported in CANTON, MI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. Vehicle had 6 CYLINDERS. Bmw 335xi 2011 drive type:AWD. FUEL TYPE: GAS. VEHICLE SPEED: 35 mph.

BMW 335XI 2011 car safety problem was reported on Dec 08, 2010.BMW 335XI 2011, manufactured by BMW of North America, LLC had a problem with SUSPENSION . I BOUGHT MY BMW 335I XDRIVE BRAND NEW...ORDERED IN JAN 2010 AND DELIVERED ON APRIL 19, 2010. SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE WAS REPLACED 3 TIMES (WITHIN 20,000 MILES) BECAUSE OF POTHOLE DAMAGE TO THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE. ALSO, THE CAR REQUIRED REALIGNMENT. IN AUGUST 2012, I HAD ABOUT 22,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND HAD TO REPLACE ALL OF MY TIRES ( EXCEPT THE PASSENGER SIDE LEFT FRONT, SINCE THAT WAS THE TIRE THAT WAS ALREADY REPLACED 3 TIMES PRIOR TO HAVING 22,000 MILES ON MY CAR) BECAUSE THEY WERE WORN OUT. THE BRIDGESTONE RUN-FLATS ARE EXPENSIVE FOR MY BMW. THE COST TO REPLACE ONE FRONT TIRE WAS $430. LUCKILY, I HAD PURCHASED THE TIRE WARRANTY WHEN I BOUGHT MY BMW. THE WARRANTY WAS $1,000. I FEEL I AM BEING RIPPED OFF THOUGH. WHY, AFTER SPENDING $60,000 ON A NEW BMW SHOULD I HAVE TO SPEND ALMOST $3,000 ON TIRES IN LESS THAN 3-YEARS OF OWNERSHIP WHICH INCLUDES THE $1,000 FOR TIRE/WHEEL INSURANCE. I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 12 DIFFERENT MAKES AND MODELS OF CARS SINCE I'VE HAD MY LICENSE AND I HAVE NEVER SPENT AS MUCH MONEY ON TIRES FOR ONE CAR AS I HAVE FOR MY BMW. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST BMW AND THE TIRE MANUFACTURES FOR PRODUCING AND SELLING A PRODUCT THAT WAS INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED TO FRAUD THE CONSUMER. THEY KNOWINGLY PRODUCED AND SOLD A TIRE THAT HAD A SHORT LIFE-SPAN, HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO DAMAGE FROM A TYPICAL POTHOLE, AND EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. THEY ALSO OFFERED THE MOST EXPENSIVE TIRE WARRANTY IN THE INDUSTRY...THE COST OF THE WARRANTY INDICATES THAT THEY KNEW THESE TIRES WOULD BE REPLACED OFTEN. I WILL ALSO CONTACT THE FTC AND BBB. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 6855 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WBAKF9C57BE.
