BMWNA -WHAT GIVES - s/b Bigger Recall? (archive)

There's a post here today about a fan fire in a June '01 build! I have a May '01 3.0. I checked today, it has a Seimens fan P/N 6 908 124 that from this board, appears to be the bad one. Also, in posts listing the VINs, mine isn't listed. Maybe it was my fault but I trusted that mine wasn't included due to the lists of VINs here and my date (5/01). We just noticed today that the A/C didn't work very well when standing still and that's why I checked further tonight. Guess what, my fan DOES NOT ever turn on. My first bug - a big ugly one I'd say. Orland Park BMW will be getting a call first thing in the AM and I HOPE they give me the right answers (yes they know about it, yes they have the part, bring it in sir and we'll replace it right away). It's staying parked outside in any case until fixed. If nothing else, BMWNA has sure been extremely poor in communicating to it's buyers what's the story. I'm sure they're just afraid of the potential news media frenzy after the Firestone/Ford tragedies, not that this compares in any way to the devastation those caused, only I'm sire the media would love to hear stories like these.

You guys want business from reputation, word of mouth and repeat customers? This aint helpin'.
