Description of the problem	I own a 2011 bmw 128i. On 7/5, my wife was driving the vehicle when it suffered a total electronic failure. She was unable to see how fast she was traveling due to the fact, the speedometer failed. When she returned home, all of the warning lights were on. The car would rev without touching the gas. I spoke to d-[xxx] the bmw dealer. They had me tow the car into their shop. 7/9, i received a call from [xxx] at bmw dealer. He advised me that some water from a jug i carry in case of an emergency leaked and got onto the electronics in the trunk and it would cost me 531. 00. He told me to contact my insurance to have them pay. I called bmw corporate because this sounded a little strange. Bmw told me they do not recommend putting groceries in the trunk because it could cause a dangerous effect. I was not told of this when i bought my car. Bmw (another dealer) advised my father that this is a common problem and affects all models. They will not fix it and want everyone to use their insurance to pay for it. Bmw is too lazy to pay to correct the issue. My wife or someone on the road could have been involved in a traffic accident due to the fact her speedometer went out. This is a dangerous car. My car is still in the shop as of 7/10. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
