| Description of the problem | The fuel pump went bad ,and left me stranded on a busy street,it suppose to have a manufacturer warranty for 15years or 150,000 miles from bmw, but they don't honor it at the dealer,i feel this should be a recall due to the fact that the fuel pump is sealed inside the tank,which leaves no access to change the pump,and the dealer is stating that we have to pay 6500. 00 for the whole tank.. This should be a recall.. |
