BMW Z3 1998 Safety Review #702345
BMW Z3 1998 car safety problem was reported on Mar 01, 1998.BMW Z3 1998, manufactured by BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE had a problem with VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR . THE PLASTIC REAR WINDOW IN THE CONVERTIBLE TOP HAS A DESIGN FLAW. WHEN THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS LOWERED AND THEN RAISED AGAIN (THE INTENDED NORMAL OPERATION OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP), IT CAUSES SEVERE CREASING OF THE REAR WINDOW. THIS RESULTS IN THE REAR VIEW OUT THE WINDOW BEING SIGNIFICANTLY DISTORTED AND IMPAIRED, WHICH I THINK IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND BMW ABOUT THIS. THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT "THEY ALL DO THIS" AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. THERE IS NOTHING THE OWNER CAN DO TO REMOVE THE CREASES. THE ONLY RESPONSE THE DEALER HAS PFFERED IS TO HEAT-TREAT THE WINDOW AND MELT AWAY THE CREASES. HOWEVER, THE NEXT TIME THE TOP IS LOWERED AND THEN RAISED AGAIN, THE WINDOW HAS THE SAME DEEP CREASES. THIS CONCERNS ME, BECAUSE THE DISTORTED REAR VIEW IS DISTRACTING AND A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE ONE CANNOT SEE CLEARLY TO THE REAR OF THE CAR..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):4USCJ3323WL.

BMW Z3 1998 Safety Review #10415652
BMW Z3 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 01, 2011.BMW Z3 1998, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . I PURCHASED A USED 1998 BMW Z3 WITH THE 1.9 LITER ENGINE ON 10/14/2010 WITH 90564 MILES. IN MID NOVEMBER I TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC FOR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WHICH WAS SERVICED. THE MECHANIC INFORMS ME THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH Z3'S ALONG WITH OTHER MODEL BMW'S WITH THE WAY THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS ATTACHED. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE FLEXING IN THE SHEET METAL WHERE THE DIFFERENTIAL IS ATTACHED CAUSING FAILURE OF THE SPOT WELDS HOLDING THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY TOGETHER. HE SHOWED ME IN MY TRUNK WHERE TWO OF THE SIX SPOT WELDS HAD BROKEN. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON THE DIFFERENT BMW FORUMS AND BMW IS CLAIMING THIS FAILURE IS DUE TO PERFORMANCE MODIFICATIONS OR CARS THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO A TRACK OR AUTOCROSS. I DO NOT KNOW THE PREVIOUS HISTORY OF MY CAR BUT IT APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. ON 6/30/2011 I HAD THE CAR IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR SERVICE WORK AND MY MECHANIC FOUND TWO MORE BROKEN WELDS AND SOME SEPARATION IN THE REAR CHASSIS. THIS CAR IS PRETTY MUCH UN-DRIVABLE NOW DUE TO THIS CONDITION. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A COUPLE OF COMPANIES THAT MAKE A REPAIR KIT FOR THIS THAT WILL STRENGTHEN THE TRUNK AREA AND PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. .Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):4USCH7321WL.
