BMW Z4 2011 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2009.BMW Z4 2011, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS . 26sep12 the tire pressure monitoring system will provide a false failure when there is certain electrical interference (e.g. cell towers). this is a recognized fact as noted in the driver's manual (p.71). the issue is that the system fails to reset after the interference has passed and all of the failure lights remain on for an indeterminate period of time (from 2 hours to 3 days) before automatically resetting. absent this resetting the car is unsafe as, without a warning system for tire failure (either low pressure or tread failure), an accident could occur. the dealer offered no solution as the computer does not register a system incident and all systems passed a computer check on 16aug.. bmw north america ([xxx]) could not provide any further assistance. a properly functioning reset system is needed to insure safe operation of the motor vehicle. thank you for your time. prior reference workspace: nhtsa hotline center case: failure of tire pressure monitoring systems case number: [xxx] date: 09/24/2012 time: 16:15:14 creation date: 09/22/2012 creation time: 10:09:06 description: entered on 09/24/2012 at 16:15:14 edt (gmt-0400) by m white: thank you for contacting the u.s. department of transportation's vehicle safety hotline information center. if you are interested in filing a complaint you may call our hotline at 1-888-327-4236 and a customer service representative will be happy to assist you. you may also visit our web site at www.safercar.gov for information. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 9500 miles.

BMW Z4 2011 car safety problem was reported on July 11, 2014.BMW Z4 2011, manufactured by BMW of North America, LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . the incident occurred in auburn, ca. we had just finished lunch and were planning to head home. i placed my foot on the brake pedal to start the car and we heard a distinct popping noise. as i engaged the transmission and started to move forward i immediately realized the bmw had lost its braking ability. i was able to slow the car and re-park the vehicle. we had the vehicle flat bedded back to the dealership in sacramento, ca. the dealer took a week to repair it and when i retrieved the car the repair representative told me that the power assist and master cylinder had failed and been replaced. recently i checked the internet for other similar incidents with bmws and found that bmw has been doing a "voluntary" recall on 2012s and 2013s. bmw has not yet issued a recall for 2011 models to my knowledge. i feel strongly that the nhtsa should require bmw to immediately initiate a mandatory recall on all bmws that have a similar braking system. if we had been traveling at speed there would most likely have been an accident and possible injury. if it had been on the freeway at highway speed we hate to think what might have happened. these vehicles are unsafe and should be removed from the road as soon as possible..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 19600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):VBALM5C50BE. Bmw Z4 2011 problem was reported in SACRAMENTO, CA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
