My pirelli run flat ties only lasted less than 8,000 miles. The front tires are bald! The rear tires have approximately 3,000 miles left. Unacceptable. This IS not an issue with my car, but only with the tires. I could not find anywhere on this website to complain about the tires.

My drive train indicator comes on while I am driving for a long period of time or if I hit the gas too fast it would cause it to come on.
- Electrical system
After a round trip 25 miles drive and placing the car in park with the engine off, the passenger door would not open from inside or outside of the car. The issue appears to be an electrical, because the central locking system would lock the car, but would not unlock. The driver door does open from the inside but the passenger door does not. This could be catastrophic in case of fire or accident.

Purchased 2012 BMW 750li x drive in sep 2016 not realizing or being informed that I was purchasing a race car. Shortly after the purchase, I notice some tire wear, roaring noise, and a rough ride on cold mornings with the run flat tires. I complained to the dealer and was told that the car IS design to wear out a set of tires annually in order to get great performance. After 2 years of owning the car and driving about 20K miles, I just happen to look under the vehicle and notice the tire wear as I was about to take a trip. See photos attached. The wear IS bad for the environment and the driver's wallet replacing tires annually. If this design was for race cars and high speeds, it should have stayed in germany since the speed limit in alabama IS 70mph. The target data for the rear camber IS -1.52 degrees. A new set of michelin run flat installed IS $1557.45. Request BMW recall such cars and repair rear camber at or near 0.00 degrees. Vehicle was stationary.

The engine malfunctioned in my car while driving and IS a safety hazard to myself and others on public roads with multiple engine parts identified by the manufacturer to be defective. the car sporadically stops operating with full power and there have been several reports of instant engine failure while driving. BMW issued what they have called the N63 customer care package on dec. 29, 2014 to address failures on the engine regardless of warranty and mileage, but have denied this service for my vehicle. the defective engine IS in the following vehicles: F01 and F02 (7 series sedan)' produced from 3/2009 to 6/2012 F04 (active hybrid 7)' produced from 4/2010 to 6/2012 F07 (gran turismo)' produced from 9/2009 to 6/2012 F10 (5 series sedan)' produced from 3/2010 to 7/2013 F12 (6 series convertible)' produced from 3/2011 to 7/2012 F13 (6 series coupe)' produced from 7/2011 to 7/2012 E70 (X5)' produced from 3/2010 to 6/2013 E71 (X6)' produced from 7/2008 to 6/2014 E72 (activehybrid X6)' produced from 9/2009 to 9/2011 I purchased the vehicle with 40,429 miles and michigan rebuilt salvage title in may of 2016 after it was in an accident in august 2015. the position of BMW IS that they will not perform the service on the vehicle now as it was reported as an insurance loss, but likely thousands of these vehicles operate on public roads legally with rebuilt titles. I feel the condition IS a true safety risk and should be handled under a recall to require proper correction and ensure public safety rather than a discretionary service from BMW to protect their reputation and expenses. attached IS the michigan rebuilt title and document for re-certification showing the repairs did not include the motor. also included IS the correspondence with BMW and a photos of the vehicle after repair.

When entering the on ramp to merge onto the highway. I accelerated to merge into traffic and car vibrated violently and would not accelerate. I continued to press the accelerator but nothing happened and a message appeared on the display. Now, I'm stuck between the on ramp and the highway with a tractor trailer rapidly approaching. He barely has enough space to merge to his left and avoids rear ending me.this could have been catastrophic. I continued to press the accelerator and nothing happened. I put my hazards on and quickly read the message. It read, "maximum engine output not available." so, I turned the car off and restarted it, and it worked fine for a few hundred feet until I tried to accelerate. It did the exact same thing but this time it allowed me to creep along at 35 mph. I pulled over into the emergency lane and turned it off and on again, and it worked as normal. But this time I just continued to drive to work at 35 mph. During work, I scheduled a service appointment the next day. After work, I pulled out of my parking space and something popped and once again it stalled. After turning it on and off again, I was able to drive it home. The next day at the dealership, I was informed of the customer care package (recall). But what I didn't know at that time, the car had already been recalled with the previous owner. A lot of the same work was duplicated. Btw, this IS a 2012 750li with 37,000 at the time of the second occurrence. The first occurrence happened at 29,931. It happened again 2 months later. This vehicle IS unpredictable and you don't know when it will stall on you. The last repair reduced the powertrain output and takes a deep gasp before accelerating. Please read bmw's customer care service. The number of repairs are too numerous to list on the remainder of this thread.

This car experiences multiple drivetrain malfunction codes, looses power at intervals when driving, leaks oil from seals which creates white smoke from both the exhaust pipes and from underneath the hood. It also has a rough idle and every so often, the check engine light comes on. BMW should be ashamed of themselves for having these ongoing problems with their cars in this day and age. *js
