Filed: May 2014

LOUD RATTLE FROM REAR SUSPENSION, SOUNDED LIKE LOOSE SHOCK TOWER. TOOK TO DEALER, BOTH REAR SUSPENSION SPRINGS WERE BROKEN. I AVOID ALL ROAD HAZARDS AND DO NOT 'BEAT' MY CARS. BMW SERVICE ADVISOR HAD A BROKEN SPRING ON HER DESK TO EXPLAIN THE ISSUE. IT HAPPENS THAT OFTEN. REPAIR COST ME $987.38. I CALL MANUFACTURER DEFECT. *TR
