None of the BMW accounts (BMW, BMW USA, BMW M) are as active with posting on twitter as they are on IG.

Maybe I am wrong, but I think my comments are viewable to anyone who has an account?

i sent bmw and bmw usa a DM using twitter. They got back to me asking for my production # and phone #. who knows what will happen next.

I think I'm gonna start trolling their FB posts here to amuse myself, similar to what you guys are doing on IG lol

I also just made my weekly call still nothing with no fix in site. The agent said "they will fix it when the parts come in", and I said ,"don't you mean when the software program fix is figured out by the engineers?" At that point he paused and said yes, "he's heard it might be software related".

With the above being acknowledged, it's almost crystal clear than there is ZERO communication between the engineering division and NA corporate. At least I have almost week before my car hits the VPC. Hopefully this won't be longer than another week or 2 at most. Again, it's mostly the lack of communication, conflicting information and bad PR from this brand and at this price point that is the most disturbing.

I commented on their recent M8 post on FB and in 5 minutes got this response. Messaged them what they asked for, we'll see if I get any actual reach out.

This may be worth reactivating my dormant FB account for...

I just exchanged some messages with them on Twitter. They asked for VIN and phone number. Will let you guys know what comes of it.

My old Vehicle F150 has been traded into the dealership I bought my M8 GC Comp from, papers were signed and the F150 has been sold(I brought the buyer for it) so I am sitting without a vehicle, waiting for this stop sale and hoping it's done by next week.

Dealership told me software fix but I almost don't believe them as it seems like they are always kept out of the loop on things.

I'm not sure what I do if the M8 can't be delivered next week, or doesn't have a timeline. I will definitely need to ask for a loaner car of the same caliber.

Here's to hoping its done next week

Yea if folks bombard their social media pages maybe they will act quicker. Brands tend to feel the heat more because news spreads quicker on social media

"Thank you. A member of our Executive Customer Care team will follow up with you tomorrow morning."

The E63S and RS6 Avant are really good contenders.

My twitter reply was crap - “thank you for letting us know. In order to submit your complaint to the relevant department, we recommend using our contact form by clicking the following link blah blah blah...”

Have them give you a loaner while you wait to pick up your new car. This should be a no-contest courtesy from BMW.
