2017 BMW X1 Body & Structure Problems

My car has a warning code saying, “ secure vehicle form rolling”. There is a fault spring within the shift column. BMW is not covering it as a recall even though it could roll and hit someone or something.

This week, again, the rear hatch came down on me as I was loading groceries and while I tried to fend it off, giving me a bruise on my lower arm The rear hatch door randomly closes while I am loading/unloading the rear of the X1. In the past I thought it might be the key fob being bumped in a purse or pocket, but NO. It happens randomly. It beeps its warning thank goodness, but has put me, my grandchildren, and others helping load at risk several times since we purchased this car in 2017. I thought this might be peculiar to my car alone, but now see others with the same complaint! I will not let my grandchildren stand around the back of the car when loading. BMW will be sued by someone, bet on it, if it hasn't already happened, if any child or animal is injured due to this problem. The force was strong enough to bump and bruise an adult, let alone a child! My dealer listened to my complaint, but offers no solution...I have no paperwork to this effect. This is a safety and public relations nightmare for BMW that it has not been addressed already...

While we were driving on the freeway probably about 65 mph, we heard a big explosion right next to us! We thought someone shot as us, the car swerved for a second, we noticed our the sunroof was exploded. We stopped and examined the evidence, no sign of rocks or object hit at the car

Bad engine mount after 32k miles. seems to be a common problem if you do a google search. These cars should be recalled for this.

The rear hatch constantly closes on it's own when putting things in or pulling things out of the trunk. I've had my head hit by the lid or had to scramble to prevent it from hurting someone else. This is a safety hazard that BMW refuses to fix.

THE REAR HATCH OF THE BMW WILL SPONTANEOUSLY CLOSE WITHOUT WARNING - CAUSING THE DOOR TO SLAM INTO ONES HEAD. THERE IS NO WAY OF DEACTIVATING THE FOOT SENSOR TO BLOCK THE HATCH FROM INADVERTENTLY CLOSING WHILE A PERSON IS IN THE VICINITY OF THE HATCH DOOR. -BMW IS STATIONARY WITH KEY FOB IN POCKET - LOADING ITEMS INTO REAR CARGO AREA - WITHOUT WARNING THE HATCH QUICKLY STARTS CLOSING HITTING A PERSON IN THE HEAD WITH TREMENDOUS FORCE

2017 BMW X1 REAR HATCH DOOR SHUTS PREMATURELY WITHOUT REASON WHICH ONE HAS TO QUICKLY GET OUT OF THE WAY TO AVOID INJURY. IN MY CASE, IT CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME AND, NO, MY FEET ARE NOT UNDER THE KICK SENSOR UNDER REAR BUMPER. BMW FORUM SAYS IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

THE TRUNK STARTS CLOSING BY ITSELF, 100S OF EXAMPLES ON THE INTERNET FOR THIS HAPPENING.

THE TAILGATE CONSISTENTLY CLOSES ON ITS OWN. WITHOUT MY FOOT EVEN BEING NEAR THE SENSOR THAT IS LOCATED UNDER THE BACKEND. T HAS SLAMMED ME IN A BACK A FEW TIMES WHEN I'VE HAD MY HEADPHONES IN AND DID NOT HEAR THE BEEPING. I WON'T EVEN LET MY KNEES GET ANYTHING OUT OF IT. THE DEALERSHIP IN FL HAS ALLEGEDLY FIXED IT BUT CONTINUES TO DO IT. IT DID IT ON THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL. I MOVED IN AND CONTINUE TO DO IT TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA AND THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. WHEN IT HIT YOU IN THE BACK IT HURTS REALLY BAD.

REAR HATCH OPENS AND CLOSES SPONTANEOUSLY IF KEY FOB IS IN YOUR POSSESSION AND YOU ARE IN THE VICINITY OF THE REAR HATCH. BMW SERVICE ADVISER SAID THIS IS A DESIGN ISSUE AND THERE IS NO AVAILABLE FIX. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN THIS OCCURS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS AT LEAST SIX TIMES IN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS. SPONTANEOUS CLOSING IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS IF YOU ARE IN THE OPEN HATCH AREA AND THE HATCH STARTS TO COME DOWN ON YOU...

The lifegate will shut without warning while loading or unloading from the back end. The sensors underneath were not foot triggered to initiate the gate closing.
