Right there with you. <3000mi on the car and the drive unit needed to be replaced, the front left strut area makes a popping when turning the wheel, and I can hear something flapping while driving.
My 2013 P85 was in for service 4 times before the alignment was fixed correctly. Sticky sunroof. Rattles. 12v battery failure causing full system failure. Motor replacement. Charge port battery broke.
2014 P85D: Total vehicle failure at 218 miles on the odometer. Front motor replaced. Rear motor milling failure. Rear motor replacement again as part incompatible with Autopilot.
That all being said, the service is painless and I still love my car. I'm not going back to BMW unless kicking and screaming.
I wonder how much post-purchase rationalization is going on there. With a $100,000+ car having to be serviced that many times - it sounds like a major inconvenience for people who work hard to make a living (so as to afford a $100K+ car).
Coming back and buying a new one one year after that then also breaks about a week after purchase and saying "Oh I still love it" shows that SJ's Reality distortion field is alive and kicking.
