INCIDENT	Fri 27 Jan
HEADLINE	DO NOT EVER BUY BMW X5 OR X5M
BEAWARE OF THE BMW X5 AND X5M THEY SEEM TO BE LOVELY VEHICLES BUT THEY HAVE A FAULT WHICH IS THE ENGINE CUT OFF AND POWER LOSS, SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WHICH THEY DO NOT TELL YOU, ONCE YOU BUY THE VEHICLE IT IS YOUR PROBLEM AS BMW DOES NOT TAKE BACK VEHICLES AND THEIR BACKUP STINKS. IT SEEMS THEIR " TECHNICAL " DEPARTMENT NEED MORE TRAINING AS THEY ARE BUMS. ACCORDING TO BMWSA IT IS A SAFETY PRECAUTION SO THAT THE ENGINE DOES NOT GET DAMAGED BUT MY ARGUMENT IS IF YOU ARE PAYING SO MUCH OF MONEY FOR A POWERFUL ENGINE YOU SHOULD GET OUT THAT POWER WHENEVER YOU DRIVE FAST, BUT WITH THESE VEHICLES YOU DONT GET THAT POWER BECAUSE THE ENGINE CUTS OFF, I FEEL WE SHOULD BE TOLD ABOUT THIS BFORE WE PURCHASE THESE VEHICLES AS A LOT OF MONEY IS INVOLVED AND EVERYTIME IT HAS TO GO TO THE DEALER FOR RECTIFYING IT STAYS WITH THEM FOR NOT LESS THAN A WEEK. SO THINK VERY CAREFEULLY BEFORE PURCHASING, MIGHT AS WELL BUY THE MERCEDES ML63 OR ANY ML SERIES AS THEY SEEM TO BE A MORE RELIABLE AND STABLE BUY. MAYBE THATS MY NEXT ROUTE !!!
