One of the worst cars I have ever driven changed 5 cars till date and never faced so much mental trauma as faced with this BMW every now and then Tyres burst changed all 4 Tyres around 5 times when we ask BMW what’s the issue they always give bullshit reasons
1st time -(within 1st month of purchase) Sir you might be overspeeding ( my speed was 70 Kmph), so this happened, and they were so manipulative they told since, since “you are a valuable customer, we will replace it for free “
2nd time -(3rd month of purchase ) roads were in bad condition in the area I was driving, so I had to argue with them and get a free replacement of Tyres again
3rd time - (4th month of purchase)while travelling to attend a patient in middle of night tyre burst and patient was critical luckily my junior doctor was able to handle situation and patient survived who would have been responsible if patient died no one would have blamed BMW for botched tyre after a huge fight with BMW regarding this matter the sales guy told we use RUN FLAT Tyres so the problem is persisting please change it to tubeless which cannot be covered under BMW secure plan so I had to buy tubeless Tyres with own money and thought will not have any further trouble guess what it still burst
4th time - (7th month of purchase ) Sir, the Tyres are low profile, that’s why they are damaging. Whenever asked what to do, they couldn’t give any suggestions
All 4 times the burst happened when a car hit a pothole, which are very small in fact, and given Indian roads, it’s impossible to find roads free of potholes, so I was taking the car out occasionally only
5th time - (10 days to go for 1 year of purchase ), this time the car hit the pothole around 70-80 Kmph, this time the axle broke and the tyre came off the vehicle, not just a regular tire burst, which bmw is notorious for and hides it while selling the cars
When I asked BMW people it’s new car you had to replace the axle under warranty they rejected and gave bill of 10,70, 254 rupees and when I look at estimate bill they included so many unnecessary things in the bill BMW India people are blood sucking leeches
After spending a lot of money, we face so much mental trauma with BMW
Beware of BMW's high maintenance, low reliability, and very bad customer service
Instead, buy Japan counterparts or Indian cars, and completely lost trust in so-called German engineering excellence.
