I was going down the highway at about 75 mph in middle lane in Naples, Florida on June 26, 2026. It was about 85-90 degrees. Air Conditioning was on, I was not using cruise control. All of the sudden I got a bright red Emergency Message saying the car was non-functional and to pull over immediately. It immediately slowed down and then about 2-4 seconds later it returned to normal function. No other messages flashed. Very scary; had someone been behind me or to the side there would have been a collision. I immediately took the car to a certified BMW dealer and I have not gotten the car back yet. They said they never heard of this happening. The car has about 3800 miles on it. It is a BMW 550e
Is 1 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2026 and 2026, roughly 1 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
