I have not read the entire thread but my 2017 did all of the steering stuff described here. It went back to the dealer every time it happened. Software issue that was going to take a number of months to fix. Apparently the software was not properly booting the steering module. EVERY BMW has...

Mother's Back To Black.

Carrying cans of gas inside the vehicle. What could possibly go wrong?

In a nutshell, the new larger battery in the ‘19s takes longer to charge, the supplied “OUC” is now 10 amps as opposed to 12 in the ‘17 so you pretty much need a level 2 on your wall if you want any functionality from this car. It took 48 hours to charge my battery from 35% to 95% using the OUC...

I can think of no other reason. I'm beginning to feel the same so its mutual. My brand new 2017 I3 REX with my 5000 km. on it had the steering fault. I sent it in in the Fall and they had it for 2 weeks and they found nothing. They gave it back. It happened again and this time they had it for 7...

My car is at the dealership now, so far for a month total for two tow-ins. They first said the steering issue was a fault in something in the steering rack and they would replace the entire thing. Now they say they have discovered that it is a steering module software problem and BMW has...

Actually, I have not left, I am still an owner and I am still annoyed, especially after having paid huge dollars for this thing. I watched the official BMW build video and I was impressed, but the flaws are too numerous for me to ever be thrilled now. Dumbing down the regen braking has me quite...

2017 Rex, 3500 km. Silver with tan leather patches and cloth. I bought it May this year with some end-of-year discounts. I was really excited to drive and explore the i3 but I’m done. The car should never have been allowed to go this many years with so many flaws. The cruise control is...

My car, a 2017 with 3000 km just had this same steering failure and I have sent it to the dealer on a flatbed. If there is anything to report, I will get back here.
