| 1. high pressure fuel pump issue on may 21st led to the car stalling while driving and turning. also put the car in limp mode (reduced power). also, run-flat tires on the car have all bubbled/popped- have had car only for 5 months with 6800 miles. 2. car stalled numerous times while driving and would stall almost every time when car was stopped at a stop sign or red light. before bringing the car in for service three days later the car stalled at least 5 times- bmw replaced the fuel pump yesterday. *tr | |||

| Gas door of the 2007 bmw 328xi (and others) can become open & ejected at highway speeds, or during car wash. the door unlocks & can be opened when force is applied if both car doors are unlocked. if enough force (lateral) is generated during a wash, or at highway speed, the door can become ejected due to blowers (dryers) of car wash. good intent, poor execution by bmw engineers by using a snap fit plastic door assembly w/ the sheet metal door. *tr | |||

| I drive a 2007 bmw xi and it is less than 1.5 years. this is all about a week apart from each incident. the had been acting funny for a week or so and i brought it into bmw and they found nothing wrong. they gave me back the car and a week later, the car stalled on me while i was driving. after taking the car to the dealership, they discovered the fuel pump needed to be replaced. i picked up my last week and this week while driving home from work, it stalled again! most likely due to the fuel pump. *tr | |||
