SUSPENSION

 The rear suspension is seperating at the attachment points to the body. this is a known defect by bmw. there has been a class action lawsuit but it has expired and bmw is doing nothing about the repairs. this has posed a very dangerous situation where the car suspension can actually become seperated from the body.
