BMW 7 SERIES 2004 car safety problem was reported on July 23, 2004.BMW 7 SERIES 2004, manufactured by BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM) . I PURCHASED A 2004 BMW 745LI ON JULY 1, 2004. A WEEK LATER, I WAS CALLED AND TOLD OF THIS RECALL. I'M NOW TOLD THAT IT WILL TAKE A MONTH TO EVEN GET A PART FOR THIS CAR. I FEEL THAT BMW KNEW OF THIS DEFECT PRIOR TOP DELIVERING ME THIS CAR AND THEREFORE, SOLD ME A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW, EIF YOUR RECORDS REFLECT WHEN BMW KNEW OF THIS DEFECT.I ALSO DO NOT FEEL THAT A MONTH IS NOT A SUFFICINET TIME TO REPLACE THIS ONE PART. WHEN I CALLED BMW, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CARS REGISTERED IN GERMANY WILL BE REPAIRED FIRST. THIS IS WRONG, WE SHOULD GET BETTER TREATMENT FROM BMW AS WE REPRESENT THEIR LARGEST MARKET SEGMENT. IS THERE ANY PROVISION UNDER OUR LAWS THAT WOULD MAKE THEM HAVE TO EITHER GIVE US PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT OR AT LEAST EQUAL TREATMENT IN EFFECTUATING THESE REPAIRS? I PERSONALLY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEM EITHER MORE QUICKLY REPAIR MY VEHICLE, OR REPALCE IT, OR RELEASE ME FROM THE LEASE CONTRACT. THEY DON'T SEEM TO WANT TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN TELL ME THEY'RE SORRY. MEANWHILE, I'M PAYING $1,4000 PER RMONTH (ALREADY MADE 2 PAYMENTS) AND HAVEN'T EVEN BEEN ABLE TO PUT 800 MILES ON THE CAR.

BMW 7 SERIES 2004 car safety problem was reported on Aug 12, 2004.BMW 7 SERIES 2004, manufactured by BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS . HELLO, SOMETHING SIMPLY MUST BE DONE ABOUT THESE CARS WITH THE EXTREMELY BRIGHT, OFTEN BLUE IN COLOR HEADLIGHTS! THEY ARE A SAFETY HAZARD! AT THE VERY BEST THEY ARE DISTRACTING AND IRRITATING. IT IS HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE SOME OF THESE LIGHTS ARE LEGAL, BUT THEY APPARENTLY ARE. IT SEEMS INCREASING NUMBERS OF NEW CARS, MOSTLY IMPORTS, ARE EQUIPPED WITH THEM FROM THE FACTORY. FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN ABLE TO SEE, THE BMWS ARE THE WORST. AUDI, ACURA, LEXUS, INFINIT, NISSAN, CADILLAC ESCALADE AND CHRYSLER PACIFICA ARE ALSO PRETTY BAD. I AM SURE THE DRIVERS OF THESE VEHICLES CAN SEE MUCH BETTER WITH THESE EXTREME HEADLIGHTS. BUT THEIR BEING ABLE TO SEE BETTER SHOULD NOT CAUSE OTHER MOTORISTS TO BE BLINDED! PLEASE!!!!!!! DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!!!!!! ONE MORE NOTE: I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT VIN NUMBER. I DO NOT HAVE A VIN NUMBER TO PROVIDE AND THIS WAS THE ONLY THING I COULD GET IT TO ACCEPT SO I COULD SUBMIT THIS. CRAZY, EH?! ANYWAY, I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT!!!!!!!!! SINCERELY; ALLEN H.

BMW 7 SERIES 2004 car safety problem was reported on Aug 07, 2011.BMW 7 SERIES 2004, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . HARD TO START, CRANKS FOR A WHILE TILL IT BUILDS UP PRESSURE THEN STARTS. IDLES ROUGH AND SOMETIMES DIES WHEN SITTING AT STOP LIGHT, AND SPUTTERING POWER AT TIME WHEN TAKING OFF, LEAKS FUEL FROM RIGHT REAR WHEEL WELL WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL. ALSO STALLS WHILE DRIVING AND TOTAL LOSS OF POWER FOR STEERING AND OTHER CONTROLS, VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT OCCURS. I'M TOLD IT IS THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND I MUST SAY THAT I CANNOT SEE HOW THIS PART CAN BE SO EXPENSIVE ($2,700) AND SURPRISED THAT BMW DID NOT RECALL THESE AND REPLACE IF THIS IN AN ENDEMIC FAULT. I WAS LUCKY THAT MY CAR FAILED 20 YARDS FROM MY HOUSE AS I RETURNED FROM A 200 MILE ROUND TRIP ON THE HIGHWAY. I DREAD TO THINK WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED TO ME IF THIS HAD STOPPED WHILE I WAS ON THE FAST LANE OF THE HIGHWAY. FOR WHAT IS A FLAGSHIP CAR, IT IS A POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP. *TR.Mileage was 64385 miles.
