BMW M ROADSTER 2000 Safety Review #10124033

BMW M ROADSTER 2000 car safety problem was reported on May 31, 2005.BMW M ROADSTER 2000, manufactured by BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE had a problem with STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS . IN SEPT. 2003, I PURCHASED A USED CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED 2000 BMW M ROADSTER FROM AN AUTHORIZED BMW DEALER. IN LATE 2003, I NOTICED NOISES COMING FROM THE REAR END OF THE CAR WHICH THE DEALER ATTRIBUTED TO A LOOSE GAS TANK HOLDER, WHICH THEY REPLACED. SOON AFTER, THE NOISE RETURNED. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK 2 MORE TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. AFTER REASEARCHING ONLINE, I FOUND OTHER BMW OWNERS HAVE DISCOVERED THE SUBFRAMES OF THEIR CARS WERE COMING UNWELDED FROM THE BODY. AFTER HAVING MY CAR INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT SOURCE, WE DISCOVERED THAT THIS WAS THE CASE FOR MY CAR AS WELL. THE FLOOR OF THE TRUNK IS SPOT WELDED TO THE REAR SUBFRAME USING A DOZEN SPOT WELDS. OVER TIME MERELY DRIVING THE CAR WITH ITS HIGH TORQUE ENGINE CAUSES THESE TACK WELDS TO BREAK CAUSING GREATER DAMAGE TO THE COMPONENTS UNDER THE CAR (DIFFERENTIAL MOUNTS, SUBFRAME,& FLOOR PAN CRACKS). IN MY CASE, 7 WELDS HAVE BROKEN & 4 MORE ARE FAILING. I HAVE ONLY PUT 6000 MILES ON THE CAR (TOTAL MILEAGE IS 56,000). BACK AT BMW, I SHOWED THEM WHAT I HAD FOUND AND WAS TOLD THAT ALTHOUGH THEY HAD SEEN THIS BEFORE, THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE DAMAGE BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE IT IS CAUSED BY AGGRESSIVE DRIVING. NATIONWIDE, I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER CASES INVOLVING THIS SAME BUILD DEFECT AND THE RELATED PROBLEMS. IF BMW IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAS SEEN IT BEFORE, WOULDN'T THEY CHECK FOR THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE BEFORE THEY GIVE A CAR THEIR CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED SEAL OF APPROVAL? ALSO, WHY WOULD THE ENTIRE SUBFRAME OF A HIGH PERFORMANCE REAR-WHEEL DRIVE, HIGH TORQUE CAR BE ATTACHED TO THE BODY USING SMALL TEMPORARY-LOOKING SPOT WELDS? IN MY CASE, THIS DEFECT HAS CAUSED ANY INJURY OR SAFETY-ISSUES YET, BUT I CAUGHT MY PROBLEM EARLY. AS THE REAR ENDS OF THESE CARS FAIL, THE DRIVERS OF THESE VEHICLES PUT THEMSELVES AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROADS AT RISK. I HAVE SEEN CASES WHERE CAR MANUFACTURERS HAVE ISSUED RECALLS FOR FAR LESS THREATENING PROBLEMS..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 56171 miles.

IN APRIL I NOTICED THAT THE SPOT WELDS IN THE TRUNK AREA HAD STARTED TO PULL APART AND RUSTED. I SEARCH THE WEB AND FOUND THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON WITH THESE CARS. BMW IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, HOWEVER, THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS IT. SOME OWNERS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET BMW TO REPLACE THE TRUNK, HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE. ONCE THE TRUNK IS REPLACE, IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD. BECAUSE BMW IS NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE BUT JUST COVERING IT UP I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A POSSIBLE FIX BY A RACE CAR COMPANY THAT DEALS WITH RE-ENFORCING CARS. .Mileage was 38500 miles.

BMW M ROADSTER 2000 car safety problem was reported on Jan 23, 2009.BMW M ROADSTER 2000, manufactured by BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE had a problem with STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS . MY ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE IS SPLITTING FROM THE SEEMS!!! I HAVE A 2000 BMW M ROADSTER (Z3) AND RECENTLY I NOTICE A CREAKING IN THE REAR. THEN ONE DAY ON MY WAY TO WORK I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A TEAR. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT HAD SEPARATED FROM THE SHEET METAL UNI-BODY CONSTRUCTION. THE CARS DIFFERENTIAL HOUSING WAS PRACTICALLY DRAGGING ON THE GROUND. THE ONLY THING HOLDING IT TO THE CAR WERE THE SHOCKS AND SPRINGS. THE TRUCK FLOOR THAT THE MOUNT WAS SPOT WELDED TO HAS SEPARATED FROM THE CAR. THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW! THE CAR AT THIS MOMENT IS NOT DRIVABLE! MY CAR IS NOW AT A DINAN SHOP. DINAN IS A COMPANY THAT MAKES HIGH PERFORMANCE PARTS FOR BMW'S. WHEN DINAN PARTS ARE USED AND INSTALLED AT AN AUTHORIZED DINAN DEALER A BMW WOULD STILL BE ENTIRELY WARRANTED BY BMW. DINAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM ALSO AND HAVE CREATED A DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT REINFORCEMENT KIT TO ADDRESS THIS. SO OBVIOUSLY BMW IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT. IT COSTS $299 HOWEVER REQUIRES 16 HOURS OF WORK BY A HIGHLY SKILLED TECHNICIAN WITH FABRICATION AND WELDING SKILLS. I SEE THIS HAS A POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING SCENARIO IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. I THOUGHT WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR I WAS BUYING A RELIABLE WELL ENGINEERED BMW VEHICLE! I HOPE THIS IS ADDRESSED BEFORE A FATALITY ACTUALLY OCCURS. *TR .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 95000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WBSCK9348YL.
