 Description of the problemThere is a clear manufacturer defect concerning the aluminum bolts associated with the valve cover gasket on the bmw 2006 325i's. With research that i have been doing from others, i noticed that this is a manufacture defect and bmw does know about the problem. This can be a safety concern if not corrected quick due to the possibility of oil falling on top of the exhaust pipe and may cause a fire. The defective bolts pose a serious potential risk to the safety of the owners of these vehicles, as well as to other drivers who share the roadway with them. I respectfully request that bmw north america issue a voluntary recall of the bmw 2006 325i's affected by this manufacturer defect. I am not privy to what constitutes a vehicle's defective components to reach a "recall status". *tt
