What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 BMW x5. While driving 25 MPH, the contact smelled a burning odor. Once the vehicle was parked in the driveway, a fire occurred and burned the inside of the vehicle. The vehicle was towed. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 16,000.
The doors on my brand new x5 open slightly and become ajar while driving. When this happens, there is a 'thunk' sound and I can hear air noise due to the small gap. This happened on 7/26/14 to the rear passenger side door. BMW north america worked on the vehicle for several days replacing the rear door latch mechanisms and adjusting the two front door mechanisms. The problem was not corrected, on 8/23/14 the driver's door also became ajar while I was driving.
