Well 46 days woefully beaten to death by consistent ineptitude BMW has really made me feel no loyalty as a first time buyer in this brand and resolving my Lemon is just a nightmare, not a good start and woefully inefficient customer support. Its great when your contact is asking you to hang in...

Yes the challenge is the car is sold through a dealer and they need to resell your equity in the car, the rebates available are tied to the car not the owner, so reselling would have to be lower. In any event its a giant pain and can't believe how much of my time its consuming... just want a car...

I had a drive train error and was towed into the dealer, they then discovered an issue with the 12v battery and system this then spiraled into replacing parts, 2 visits from a BMW NA Engineer and mine has been in 37 days still not working, waiting on BMW offer to buy the car back.

As the saga continues with my car being in the shop, I am on day 37 now of a non function car, trading calls with BMW NA who are agreeing to consider a solution and purchase the car back and will give me their answer by Dec 12th. Then my dealer proposed yesterday to resolve this ASAP and swap...

Well my car is officially dead, the car reported the drive train failure on Oct 17th and has been at the dealer since then. They have replaced over $30k in parts can not get it to work, they even flew in an engineer and replaced the components he said were the issue and still no joy. Now waiting...

Well my car is still with BMW well into its third week with mechanics still trying to resolve the root issue with the car, BMW NA had to send an engineer out to inspect the car and assess, evaluate the issues. They now feel a bad motor is the root cause and the car will be in another week (1...

Well my car is still at BMW the issue has been escalated and they now have swapped out $22.5K in parts and still at a loss to the problem with the car as we head into week 3 frustrating unfortunately

Well BMW got back to me that they determined a faulty module that controls the 12v system battery charging, module was ordered and supposedly will be ready tomorrow :) Stuart

Cool, hopefully it's a quick fix!

The towing company had issues getting it into Neutral off my driveway, they got it into Neutral once by pushing it into drive 3 times and then for whatever reason the tow guy tried to start it and locked it into park and couldn't get it back into Neutral. Had to cringe as they put skids under...

Happened to me today, charged the car overnight, the app alerted me to an error stating charging interrupted at 99%. When I went to unplug the relays in the car started clicking like crazy and when I powered up my REX it gave me drivetrain malfunction error, currently sat on my driveway waiting...

So the only issue I have with this is that there are a whopping 8 fast charge locations in the entire state, 4 in Northern California and 4 in Southern California. The fact that you have to use one by end of Dec, so hopefully more will go in before then! Enroll in ChargeNow DC Fast. If you have...

They are going fast per the DMV page. Per budget trailer bill, SB 853 (Statutes 2014, chapter 27), the green decal limit has been increased by 15,000 to a total of 55,000 stickers. As of August 25, 2014, 52,034 "green" stickers have been issued. Green stickers are valid through January 1...

Yes mine stopped yesterday, the car says it can't connect no cell service. Not sure what the issue is, I have had it in different areas where I've used it trouble free before and good cell service. Course I jinxed myself by stating I had a trouble free i3 lol...

my wife has the C-Max Energi. I prefer the i3 cargo space when folding the seats is better, due to the construction of the i3 AM radio reception is an issue and as stated they have HD and Sirius which comes with a 12 month free subscription. I get to charge at both ends and negate the use of...

Charger is worth it, I have the Clipper Creek HCS-40 I'm charged in just over 3 house the charger is $590 and no sales tax for you as they are here in California, install cost me $250 from a local electrician Also check your utility as some offer EV rates and rebates for chargers...

I bought mine last month as I wanted the Rex loaded BMW East Bay had no inventory and Stevens Creek offered me the one I wanted $1250 off MSRP and East Bay wouldn't match so bought from Stevens Creek and also cut me a deal on extending the warranty. Stuart

I have the full package Rex and the nav for me is worth it as I commute 60 miles each way and the real time traffic is a blessing, letting me know where issues are, what they are and how much time it will add to my journey. Also it shows where charging stations are and if they are in use, or use...

2,200 trouble free miles in the San Francisco bay area had check engine light come on once then upon restart went away :) BMW i3 REX

San Joaquin county is offering $3k rebates for the i3Rex or Bev, you have to agree to retain the car for 36 months or return part of the rebate pro rated and also fill out 3 annual reports one a year on mileage driven. Worth the hassle for the extra dollars :)
