2010 BMW 750XI

Filed Feb 15, 2026


Due to the terrible turbo v design my n63 engine , stalls, throws misfire codes, tranny malfunctioning codes , lean fuel codes , it’s truly dangerous to drive . The vehicle sits at 101250 miles that’s driven less than 10k miles per year since it was produced and I was totally mislead , unfairly charged for something that was deemed to be great & life changing but it has been the total opposite! I truly want BMW of America to repair because this doesn’t happen if they did not design the vehicle…

Crash
Fire

Car caught fire while parked. No signal on car indicating any problem. Car caught fire in front of my child's community center exposing children to smoke inhalation. I had to call the fire department to put out the fire. My car year and model was recalled for this but not my VIN. This has never happened to any of my cars in my life I'm just thinking how bad it could of been if I was one the highway.

I was driving at highway speeds and there was a sudden loud noise from the engine compartment and a loss of power resulting in my car becoming a hazard on the road. There were no warning lights or indicators that there was an issue. I was able to get pulled off safely and arranged for a tow to the local dealership. The dealership diagnosed the problem as a failed rod bearing which would result in the need for a new engine. They also stated that this is a problem they see often with the 4.4l…

My car has approximately 118,000 miles on it and is in excellent condition. It was dealer serviced within a week of this event. The dealer did not identify any driveline problems or conditions with the vehicle. While my wife was driving on the freeway, the rear u-joint on the front drive shaft failed, causing the drive shaft to flail from the front differential and beat a hole in the transmission. There was virtually no warning that this failure was imminent except for a slight vibration…
