Description of the problem	I have a 2009 bmw328xi, which i bought brand new and paid a lot of money for. I only have 59,000 miles. On august 3, 2013 the car temperature light went on, first yellow and not even two seconds later red. With out warning the car didn't move. So i shut off the engine immediately. Thinking the car is over heating. Instead, after getting it towed found out the water pump and electric thermostat went. I am very unhappy that a 4 and half year old car shouldn't have such problems. I've had many high end cars in the past for 11 years and never had a problem in such a short life of a car.
