BMW NA and its authorized dealership and self-funded arbitration program business practices and conducts are unfair, dishonest, and unlawful. I purchased my certified pre-owned car, a lease return with extremely low mileage, 25,922 miles covered under the terms of the BMW New Vehicle Warranty and the BMW Certified Pre-Owned warranty.

Your box was bad it would jump out a gear force me to hit a curb at one time. All wheel drive was bad. Back wheels push front wheels so front tires wear out about every 2000 miles, no notice of recall given.
