It would seem to be the steering and related component’s including the computer. I have heard a low-pitched oscillating sound coming from the passenger front wheel well. well occasionally it would pull the car to the right, not all the time just randomly whenever traveling in the 40-70 mph range. The 2 dealerships I have taken the car to they say it’s my aftermarket exhaust, so they blow me off. the sound can be heard without accelerating and is not consistent as the droning of exhaust would be with consistent gas. This defect slammed me and my e53 into the side of a semi-truck about 4 days ago. I called the dealership I purchased it from and they told me to take the car elsewhere. so, it has not been inspected or looked at but it is available to be inspected upon request. the symptom would be the oscillating sound coming from from right wheel well.
It started with a humming sound in the front right wheel well and then I was driving on the freeway and my steering wheeled jerk to the right and slammed me into the side of a semi truck vehicle is available to be looked at it almost killed me. And I contacted the dealer where I bought the car from and another dealership and they both refuse to look at my car. I believe the effective component could be either the assisted steering or lane keeping and or a bad wheel bearing at manufactured
Two rectangular blocks descend from the plastic shield under the front bumper. These blocks have a squared-off back. These blocks descend for about an inch, and are located a few inches in front of the front edge of the tires. In normal use, when the car is parked in a parking space the front tires roll forward to rest against the parking stop block, those descending vents hook onto parking stop blocks or curbing. When the vehicle is backed away from the parking space, the front shield can be torn away from its mounting points. The damaged, loose shield could strike and damage the front tires, or it could impact and damage the front brake lines, or it could obstruct the suspension, or the steering components.
