Hi Scott,
I have an issue w/ a car I just bought on Thurs night 10/30 from Carmax in Norcross.
I'm going to call their manager on Monday - but I need to get it in to you - I think it may be needing a new transmission - I was driving on 85n and suddenly a transmission error indicating for me to pull over appeared. Well it was too crowded to - so I obtained my destination and while driving back I literally had a period of time where I lost control of the car and it wouldn't accelerate. I managed to get it off of the road and made it home via back roads.
I'm still VERY VERY concerned for my safety and after doing research online - I find this :
http://www.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=870198 <- almost the EXACT same thing happened to this guy - and if you read the last post - BMW kept his car for 1.5 mos to replace the transmission.
So now I'm really freaking out - I absolutely can NOT be expected to replace a transmission on a 2010 BMW - that's just ridiculous - esp. considering it has only 47k mis. on it. I will forward this to the manager of Carmax as well - but this is going to have to go to BMW, as Carmax isn't equipped to handle a complex, serious issue such as this.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thank you much!
