BMW X3 2012 Safety Review #10433288

BMW X3 2012 car safety problem was reported on Oct 19, 2011.BMW X3 2012, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with STEERING . ON 19 OCTOBER MY WIFE AND I DROVE OUR NEW BMW X3 TO A SHOPPING CENTER AT THE CORNER OF GOSNELL AND VIRGINIA ROUTE 7 NEAR TYSONS CORNER VIRGINIA. WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE X3 OUT OF THE PARKING LOT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. THE STEERING WHEEL COULD NOT BE TURNED USING BOTH HANDS. THE X3 WOULD GO FORWARD. IT WOULD GO BACKWARDS. HOWEVER, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. AFTER 30 TO 45 MINUTES THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED AND I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE X3 WAS TOWED TO THE BMW DEALER. THE FAILURE WAS ATTRIBUTED TO A STEERING ANGLE SENSOR OUT OF POSITION. IN MY OPINION, IF THE FAILURE HAD OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY, WE COULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 19 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):5UXWX7C55CL. Bmw X3 2012 problem was reported in VIENNA, VA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 0 mph.

shifting delays on 1994 bmw 740i

Question? My door lock do not work and my battery is dead. I was told there is a positive connection beneath the car by the passenger side, which will give enough power to unlock the doors if hook up to a power pack. I am a owner of a 2000 4.4i X5

This car cathes on fire!

2003 BMW 525 catches on fire, could kill you!

i turned my car on and the steering wheel is so hard to turn that i cant drive it...what could have caused this?, because it is also shutting off by itself.

there are more scencor problems with these cars than any other car in the world.you think i would learn after five of them,BUT this time i'm done

what can cause a bmw 252i to shut down while driving at any speed?

We brought our daughter a 2000 323i BMW, a few weeks after purchasing the car the car will not short into reverse. This was a gift and our daughter was so happy, we spent a good amount of money on this car, it is in excellant condition, only has 5

I have a 2004 BMW 330ci with 120K miles. All of a sudden the steering wheel is very hard to turn and I can't make 45 degree turns. Do you have any idea on what might be wrong? Thank you.
