BMW NA Customer Relations,
Good to see you on this site. Welcome! I had the following question/request that I exchanged a couple of emails with BMW Customer Service about. It was a frustrating experience... My question was: I have a new 2008 X5 4.8i (E70). The iDrive no longer has the "force feedback" or "haptick technology" that the X5's had up until until about 8 months ago [Mar 2007]. I know a number of new X5 owners that are not happy that we don't have this option. Is there some way that this can be reinstated as an option through a software upgrade? There were a number of emails exchanged but the response was pretty much: "... I suggest contacting the service team at your authorized BMW center directly, so they can review your concerns in person and provide technical support. ..." I also asked if my question could be forwarded to the appropriate DESIGN or MANUFACTURING department but was told to talk to my service manager. Is there any other way that questions (or even suggestions) of this sort can be asked of BMW? It does not seem to be a very approachable company but maybe that is something that you're trying to change... Thanks for reading. Last edited by brian5 : 05-28-2008 at 07:18 AM. |

Welcome, BMW of North America!
I'm sure you will find valuable feedback here about BMW's product line, and our likes and dislikes; coming straight from die hard BMW enthusiasts! Unfortunately I've had a problem with several BMW dealers in my area, hopefully we can work together to work up BMW's customer service reputation!
