| Message: | | I've been trying to resolve the same problem on my car for over seven (7) months with BMW NA. Without getting into details, BMW NA and the dealer have been less than helpful. I have a ton of documentation (over a dozen service visits + numerous letters to BMW NA and the dealer, including an offer from BMW NA to swap my new car for a CPO (which I turned down).
Anyway, I have a very easy lemon law case, but the result of the case would yield me $36,000 (after mileage deduction...). It sounds good, but it's not enough to buy a new BMW is it? Thus far I've spent $40,000 on the car + $5000 in interest payments + $500 in indy mechanic diagnosis/confirmation of problem + numerous weekends without use of the car + the fact that my family refuses to ride in the car because it is unsafe. My lemon law attorney is itching to proceed, but now I'm considering filing a formal lawsuit for at least the $45,500 that I've spent + attorney's expenses, if not more.
Sure, this will take a long time, probably a year. But at least I'd have enough money to buy a car when I'm done. Has anybody else out there considered this?
