Description of the problem | So the issue i'm experiencing happens while in motion randomly (driving) with my 2013 bmw 650 xi grand coupe. ! As i'm driving , the dash board and the bmw idrive displays all major malfunctions with my 2013 bmw 650xi grand coupe . Then my bmw proceeds to shake , slows down and then your unable to accelerate pass 20-30 mph. Within a min the entire car shuts down. It's very hard to steer once it shuts down because the car battery is completely dead & unable to give it a boost . It's very scary having a car powering down when you are driving on a major highway or major roads were you have huge tracker trailers trucks passing you by . It's very hard to cut several lanes of highway in a powerless car in order to get to safety ! This 2013 bmw 650xi grand coupe is terrifying to drive ! It has left me and my family in horrible situations to the point that one wrong move and we can possible die! |
