Idleup said:Its OK guys take a word of advise - dump your I3 now!
All the problems and short-falls of the I3 is killing the car and dealers are sitting on them right now - its just a matter of time before word gets out further and you'll be paying somebody to take it off your hands.
BMW with their smoke & mirrors had us all standing in line to by this miracle electric car that in fact is a toad with ton's of problems and we paid Luxury price for a compact piece of junk that in less than a year, no one wants - here's just a few reasons below:
The over-sensitive steering problem come on BMW you got it backwards when the car goes fast its suposed to be less sensitive not more!
Instead of having a real generator like the GM Volt they stick a stupid motorcycle engine in the car and you can't even see the damn engine!
A self-Starting generator (RX) that only starts after the batteries are already too low!
Having a generator in the car that for reasons unknown will not charge the battery! (hello)
The goofy small 2.5 gal fuel tank that was reduced even further to 1.9 gallons usable. (Put a damn fuel tank in the car my lawn mower has a bigger tank)
Shutting down the fuel pump after 1.9 gallons when there is still over 1/2 gal left in your fuel tank! (Hello)
Selling a $50,0000 car without a backup camera (hello)!
Selling a $50,000 car with all the safety hype and not put a blind spot feature in the car!
Selling a $50,000 car with manual pump up seats and no electric or memory.
Having a front trunk in a car that is unusable and leaks worse than being outside.
Bottom line I'm bailing out while i still have a shirt on my back for a real car like this C-300 Mercedes I test drove - Get this! the Mercedes is $6,700 less than I regretfully paid for the I3 - What a major mistake!
Is any of this starting to make sense to you guys?
Maybe not right for the U.S.A. or people not properly looking into what they were buying like you, talking bollocks over what it does not have or does not do.
No use complaining about all the above after buying as you should fully investigate a totally new model as buying is risky and a gamble in regards value but none of your complaints are valid for me as all what you complaining about was in the spec unless you just bought blind without thinking being a big noise wanting to be 1st with one and now regretting it
