BTY: In my experience, "getting angry" often is the fastest way TO solve the problem. Being passive just delays the end result.
I am disappointed that BMW does not seem to be communicating about this issue with its dealers, but I'm not surprised. Most corporations ignore reliability and even safety issues until they reach crisis levels. Ford, General Motors and Toyota (and many others) have followed this pattern, why not BMW?
I'll stop whining when I'm driving the car I paid for, not a loaner that has half the cargo capacity and doesn't meet my day-to-day needs. |
Lotus7 you are being quite patient and calm. I would be pretty pissed if my new vehicle were sitting in the shop while I'm making payments on it. A day or two is one thing....but more than that I would be fired up!
