Buyer Beware
We had traded in a Lexus LX570 for the BMW X7 and had a good experience with the dealer when placing the build. We've been overall pleased with the vehicle until a few weeks ago. We were parking the car going about 3 MPH, about 3 feet from the curb, when pressing the brakes again the car accelerated. We pressed the brakes again and the car accelerated even faster. The automatic braking didn't work and we ended up hitting a building. The driver assistant package should've applied the brakes avoiding the collision. Some other owners of the 2023 X7 posted that BMW has a software glitch with the Driver Assistant Package which ends up turning off the system BMW corporate sent an engineer to do an inspection on the vehicle. They didn't find anything and the black box indicated the vehicle was accelerating at the time of the crash. No surprise as this is what we stated from the time of the accident. Following the accident and doing a Google search, we found information on SUA (Sudden Unintended Acceleration). The auto industry seems to have an issue with this but they don't admit to it. We found posting by owners of different BMW models and years that express the same situation. Parking at a slow rate of speed, when the vehicle accelerated when pressing the brake and then accelerating even faster when pressing the brake again, ending up in an accident. We believe this is the case with our vehicle. Some articles indicate the SUA is caused by a computer error sending a message to the vehicle to accelerate when the driver is actually pressing the brakes. Additional articles question whether the black box records the correct information relating to this situation. We're looking to see what our options are, as we're concerned this may happen again and could results in a person being injured or worse.

Not what I expected from a high-end car!!
Bought my new 2024 last August. Loved everything about it up until February, (6month mark). All kinds of warning lights started coming on, right when I started it. Local BMW dealer took 5 days to diagnose what they thought might be wrong. Had to talk to the techs in Germany. They figured out I had a defective front left strut. The part however, was on indefinite backorder and it could take until June! This is February 25, keep in mind. They give me loaner to drive, an X5. This week, now mid-April they call, tell me the part came in, they put it in. Then they got the same message on the right side! They honestly don't know how long until it will be done!! This is crazy!! I'm thinking a need a different car!

Great Car!
We waited for this car and we are glad we have it to drive. This car is a dream machine and so smooth plus great mileage. I have owned a Volvo XC90 but I was not content with the new ones. This is our third BMW and it holds 5 people with ease and plenty of room in the second row!

X7 is the ONE!!!
This SUV is like no other. I test drove the Mercedes GLS, although very nice, it lacked presence and performance. It does have a lot of classy features but it feels too busy inside for me. I like simplicity and performance. The X7 M60i is a beast on wheels and handles with perfection and comfort. The looks are insane, classy but at the same time very sporty. I am super happy with this SUV and actually feel this is by far the best SUV I have ever owned, and I have owned many ;-)
