| I have owned a 2000 bmw 750il for 3 years now and throughout that time the windows have deteriorated to a point that creates a safety hazard. it is now hard to see out of all passenger windows and i have difficulty viewing when switching lanes. i have many close calls and have to roll down the windows to switch lanes. i have cared for the vehicle as recommended and with the current condition of the windows visibility it will be impossible to drive in a few years. as a consumer i have contacted bmw about the issue and they stated it was normal wear and tear. my 2000 bmw 750il has less than 120,000 miles and is less than 10 years old. i look forward to hearing from you. *tr travis speller | |||
