Haters be hating...
Never ceases to amaze me the negativity brigade in this forum.
All car manufacturers today have product quality issues due to market pressures to put new cars and tech into the market competitive prices. The result will almost surely be product quality issues that lead to recalls. We experience this in everything we buy from food to mobile phones and even jogging shoes yet it is crazy how some people go beyond seeking compensation and fair solution to the need to personalize thier product failure to a crusade against the great evil. |

What, Honda has electric auxiliary water pumps on their twin turbo V8’s and V12’s? How cool is that, no pun intended.

Yeah, true, but I'm a mechanical engineer and if I picked a supplier who's parts lit the products I design on fire I don't think I'd be exactly blame-free!

BMW owns up to way more problems then other manufacturers so you can give them that.

These recalls just contribute to to the myth of german engineering. The engineering doesn't live up to the price point.

Agreed. Of course i understand when today's snowflakes want a perfect world filled with perfect things that always work perfectly as they desire. i mean, don't we all intrinsically know just how very important they are? Quote:
---------------- Recalls happen, these cars are made of MANY parts. Of course everyone here not happy can feel free to start their own automotive company. Lamborghini did just that.

I gotta look at the service ticket from 5 years ago when I had it repaired under warranty. I think the whole jobs without warranty would have cost around $1200 I believe. I'm going to look at the service manual to see how complex it is.

If that is true about the Bentleys and happened to one of your cars, we'll bring a lawsuit for you. That is a plain defect that we'll make them fix and get you taken care of, too. VW is dirty. Email me: tutorhelp07@gmail.com. Jim |

You guys think you get screwed? lol
BMW NA issues some recalls to the US that they don't even extend or honor up here in Canada. Legitimately same car models and for the same years.... but the recalls isn't extended. For example that awesome turbo recall. Ya we all had to pay out-of pocket up here if we wanted those lemons replaced. That makes zero sense. These water pumps have been failing for YEARS now. I am onto my third water pump; the last one lasted me 10,000 km before it failed. Last edited by shaginwagon13; 06-28-2018 at 01:57 PM.. |

I wish they'd recall mine too so I don't have to replace it before it fails
