Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Experienced fuel pump failure on my 2007 bmw 335i and became a safety hazard to others driving behind me on my way to work. started experiencing symptoms as recently as a month ago, such as long engine crank times, very rough idling upon startup, and occasional "limp mode" performance. in spite of all this, the dealership did not work on my car until i experienced a "service engine soon" (ses) warning light. the fuel pump progressively got worse where the engine would shudder when revving over 2000rpms, and the car perpetually remained in limp mode where it is not able to accelerate in a safe enough manner to drive on public roads and highways. i was finally able to bring my car in for warranty repair when the ses light came on at 7/25/07 on my 02/07 production vehicle. i was told that there is over a one month wait for a fuel pump replacement. *jb |
