BMW 128I Electrical problems by year

The vehicle's ignition coil and spark plugs have had to be replaced several times. Car lost power while driving. Stalled engine at red lights and green. The PCV Valve Heater is causing the ignition coil and spark plugs to malfunction, leading to expensive repairs.

My car has been effected by the PCV recall since march 2022. Smoking profusely and smelling like burning electronics. This happened while my family and I were in the car. This recall has occurred on numerous BMW's with more than 917,000 needing to be recalled for it. This defective PCV can cause a fire meaning the vehicle is completely unsafe for me and my family to drive. This is the THIRD time for this recall. I am unable drive my car for safety reasons because of this recall and I have not had a vehicle for 2...

Water accumulates in the trunk/boot of the vehicle causing numerous electronic faults, error codes and states per bmw this issue significant. Many issues like the ones I've described were recalled to a degree. Now, their 'fixes' are failing and more and more issue emerge with the bmw e8x frame. I was told per bmw that these recalls remedy the mistake; therefore, even though I have the same issues the recall covered I'm having the same issues. These issues can happen at any time. Most often when starting the vehicle but on particularly rainy days it can be any time and anywhere.

I bring in to longbeach bmw dealers and they mass up the car and they wanted 10,000 dallors to fixed it and I only bring to in for recalls I don't let me pick up the car

CONVERTABLE TOP NOT OPERATING.

The car was moving at highway speed with ac running. Smoke plumed from vents and under front passenger footwell. Electrical fire stemming from blower motor final stage unit and wiring harness.

Driver's side door lock/latch (actuator) occasionally will not unlock using normal physical force, only unlocks with electrical assistance from unlock button on dashboard or key fob. Could be dangerous in an accident where battery power is cut off (by design) - the occupant is unable to egress and remains trapped inside vehicle. Others have experienced similar problems with these lock actuators on other doors and on other models (per forum discussions). Bmw will not cover cost of repair if outside of warranty. Bmw part number 51217202143 (system latch)

The vehicle was in motion and the blower motor resistor harness began to smoke heavily. The a/c stopped working. I pulled over and disconnected the wiring harness and pulled the fuse. The wires melted, the connector melted, and the resistor is broken. After some research I see that bmw has recalled other cars for this exact same issue, but not the 1 series.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 bmw 128i. The contact stated that the key became stuck in the ignition and the vehicle failed to start. The failure occurred without warning. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified and the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 13v044000 (electrical system), but was informed that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 17,000.

My car headlights and all inside panel lights went out on the car. I need help because no one seems to can tell me what is wrong and how to get it fixed. I do know that a recall on electric systems happened in october but my car was never fixed. I live in laurel ms. My two front windows stopped working the same time that all lights went out.

I was accelerating into heavy traffic and my door flew open as I hit 45 mph. I immediately pulled over when safe, and found my door would not latch. I drove home slowly holding onto the door. After some playing with the buttons, it finally caught. I called the dealer and they repaired it on 3/25/16 for >$500. Again 6/14/16, I went to get in my car to go to work and the door would not latch. No injuries occurred but a serious safety hazard. I took the car back in 6/17/16 and they still have it. Told me there was "water in the actuator". Very worried about this fix.

Led running lights in passenger side tail lights have failed. Further inspection shows that the circuit board that houses the led tube lights has a malfunction due to poorly soldered circuit board. Left tail lights running light function fails completely (blinker, and brakes are still retained). Led tubes do not light up at all making the car less visible at night.

This car has some serious electrical defects. It's left me stranded at least 4 times just dying. Once when it was 14 below zero. The car will just die when it's driving. Each time bmw has a different reason for the electrical failures but I believe there is an underlying design defect that is very dangerous leaving people in a car without power no matter where they are, even in the middle of a busy highway. Once the car dies, it has this big exclamation point in the instrument controls inside a triangle and it will...

Bmw "third stop lamp" (the break light) does not fit the 1series correctly. They fall off, crack, and disappear frequently. This is a common problem with all 1 series bmw's. As this is a brake light, it is concerning. I believe the part number for this item is (63 25 7164978). Here is a link to the part with a picture {http://bmwetk.Info/parts-catalog/prd/bmw/vt/p/e82/cou/135i%20n54/usa/l/n/2009/06/50622/63/63_1055} thousands of individuals are complaining of this problem. *Tr

The failure was reported to the manufacturer. The failure and current mileage was 29,000.
