Lane Keeping Feature is Dangerous

The vehicle frequently strays out of lane even when lanes are clearly marked. When the feature is used there is added strain and stress on the driver since there is no predicting when the car will leave the lane to oncoming traffic or obstacles. The manual and videos say system can be used to over 100 mph and in traffic, and will provide a more relaxed and rested experience. DO NOT PURCHASE VEHICLE WITH THIS FEATURE because it is too dangerous to use.

Bad Ass Luxury Sports Car

My 5 series not only looks good but handles as you would expect the ultimate driving machine to handle. Great power in comfort and sport mode. The interior is high class luxury. I love this car. On the down side repairs are very expensive. It also needs premium fuel which is very expensive.

Nevermind I have to topped up the engine coolant 3 times in 18 mths . Today I sat at the back seat for the first time. Not acceptable. Car is nice for the driver the backseat ? Very very uncomfortable. Something is wrote with the angle of the backseat. Bmw should totally reduced the length of the cargo and allow adjustment of the backseat. Explains why my kid been complaining. This is my number 12 cars in 11 years. We have two cars these 11 years.
