give feedback to the factory if you experinced any problem.

 

Welcome Persam,

has there been a problem w/ the steering wheel emblem? Have not heard anything on this one.

 

[passing a warning!!!! dont press the BMW steering wheel emblem it will collaps inward.

Due to a bad construction you cant slam the horn because if you touch the emblem it will collapse inwards.

The emblem is made of beercan metal without support behind it ,there is free space and therefore no support so dont use the horn,,, incredible stupid construction!!

Anyone have experienced this please tell me how and if ypu got it fixed on the warranty?

 

I just noticed that one of the quadrants got a depression. If you press hard it sinks. KNN.

 

The same thing happened to me on the second day of ownership. But, its no big deal at all.

Jochen

 

How did you or your dealer handle this situation?

 

to all .... my emblem has loosen completly and tomorrow I will try to get the dealer to recognize that there is a possibilty that there is a construction fault.

I cant accept that a brand like BMW has a emblem which collapses!

To be continued

 

Are you talking about the standard wheel or the "sport" wheel used on the SMG models in the U.S.?

 

It seems to me that the emblem would have to be light for sfety reasons. In the event of an airbag deloyment, the center of the steering wheel "explodes" with sudden force and speed. A heavy emblem would pose a serious hazard under those conditions.

 

Yea mine is broken too. Will the dealer fix this? I posted on this problem a while back, but never told the dealer.
