NHTSA complaint #11621214

Owner complaint summary

I went to BMW of Atlantic City to purchase a BMW X5 2024 in April 2024. We ordered the 2024 vehicle and when we went back to sign the papers were told we were getting the first of the 2025 production- purchased on [XXX]. The dealer did not disclose that the 2024 was recalled for the Integrated Brake Module when we made the deal. They knew at the time there was a recall but did not disclose this information. I recently received a recall notice for my 2025 BMW X5. The dealer stated they do not have the part to fix the issue, and it is the same issue as the 2024's. I went to the dealership and asked them to take my vehicle back as I feel I was deceived. They offered me a price in which I would lose a substantial amount of money on a brand new car. Jeysy Velez - Ass. Finance Manager also stated the 2025 X5's being manufactured at this time, now have the new part in them. So they are fitting new vehicles with the correct part, sold me a vehicle that they knew had a defective part without disclosure. They have no idea when my brand new vehicle will be fixed. They also cannot tell me how many failures and / or accidents has been caused by this issue. The following day Sarah #6020 called me to tell me that they cannot buy my car back nor can they sell any recalled vehicles. So, I cannot sell my vehicle at this time. I stated they sold me a defective vehicle with the old defective part and should take it back. She said there is no remedy available at this time, I cannot sell my car, they will not tell me how many accidents or injuries from this recall. Sarah could not tell me when my car was manufactured or would not tell me. THEY KNEW THERE WAS A RECALL AND DID NOT DISCLOSE THIS INFORMATION. They knew they could not sell the 2024 we requested and switched it with the 2025 that was not officially part of the recall yet, but built it with a defective part. We purchased the car on [XXX] and it was manufactured on 4/2024 as per the label in the door. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
