stopped production

frank2287 · 05-20-2008, 11:04 AM

Is it true that production has stopped because of a recall?
i ordered my car and they told me its taking so long because of a recall that they have.

ecap18 · 05-20-2008, 11:10 AM

I called yesterday and they didnt mention this to me, although i was pushed back a week...

frank2287 · 05-20-2008, 11:21 AM

ya i ordered my car from westlake in elmhurst IL. and its been like 4 weeks already

ecap18 · 05-20-2008, 11:22 AM

Whats the recall?

hansenc · 05-20-2008, 11:28 AM

Oh boy. My car is in production now, i think at least. I hope we don't have a recall. I did however hear about some issue with the turbo but that was just from a buddy of mine. Hoping my 128i isn't effected seeing as I don't have one.

its been out in europe for 4 years already, what could be wrong? the N54?

coco_m3 · 05-20-2008, 11:33 AM

Did you talk to a person? or was the just the automated system? I doubt the automated system will mention anything about it.

rocketpop · 05-20-2008, 11:53 AM

Oh sorry, I didn't talk to a person.

Uptown Bully · 05-20-2008, 11:57 AM

Hm...maybe I'll be glad it took 32 days to get a production number. If this is true, I'll have mine with the corrected issue.

coco_m3 · 05-20-2008, 11:57 AM

call back and talk to a person...

rocketpop · 05-20-2008, 12:06 PM

Person told me the same thing, no mention of any recall or delays. Should be completed on the 23rd.
