BMW N20 AND N26 ENGINE LAWSUIT BLAMES TIMING CHAINS
BMW owners file timing chain lawsuit alleging N20 and N26 engines fail
prematurely.
By David A. Wood, CarComplaints.com Posted in News
BMW N20 and N26 Engine Lawsuit Blames Timing Chains
December 4, 2017 — A BMW N20 and N26 engine lawsuit alleges the timing
chains cause total failure of the engines that can only be repaired by
replacing the direct injection turbocharged engines that can cost up to $22,
000.
The proposed BMW class-action lawsuit includes consumers who own or lease,
or formally owned or leased 2012-2015 BMW E84 (X1), E89 (Z4), F10 (5 Series)
, F25 (X3) and F30 (3 Series) vehicles equipped with N20 and N26 engines.
According to the lawsuit, the vehicles are built with defective primary and
secondary chain assemblies that cause acceleration problems and catastrophic
engine failure.
All the named plaintiffs tell stories of problems with their BMW vehicles,
with one saying he purchased a used 2013 BMW X3 28i from a New Jersey
dealership for about $27,000. On October 12, 2017, when the vehicle had 83,
000 miles, the plaintiff says he heard a knocking noise coming from the
engine and then couldn't get the vehicle re-started.
The plaintiff says he saw marks on the loose timing chain, causing him to
pay $7,000 to have a used engine put in the vehicle.
The plaintiffs describe the primary chain as the timing chain that is used
to connect the camshafts and crankshaft, causing the valves in the engine’s
combustion chambers to open and close. But when the primary chain assembly
fails, the teeth on the chain sprocket skips and the camshafts and
crankshaft aren't synchronized.
The lawsuit alleges the plastic guide for the timing chain is made with a
defective polycarbonate composition that causes the guide to break apart and
lodge in the crankshaft drive sprocket, causing the chain to damage the
engine.
As for the secondary chain, the lawsuit says it connects the oil pump and
balance shaft assemblies to the crankshaft, but due to allegedly defective
materials, the chain elongates and damages the sprocket.
According to the plaintiffs, the owner's manuals don't contain requirements
to inspect or maintain the primary and secondary chain assemblies even
though the manuals include maintenance schedules for the vehicles up to 150,
000 miles. The lawsuit alleges this indicates BMW didn't expect the timing
chain problems or the engines that prematurely fail.
The automaker allegedly concealed the timing chain problems even though BMW
allegedly knew about the defects in 2012, something that would have
prevented the plaintiffs from buying the vehicles.
The BMW N20 and N26 engine lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for
the District of New Jersey - Chris Williams, et al., v. BMW of North America
, LLC, et al.

真是2.0 turbo 发动机的宿命啊。前有VW/Audi的lower chain tensioner,现在是宝马
的chian guide. 都是提前磨损,都是一发生问题就是发动机完蛋! 这些部件都很便宜
(最多2百刀),但dealer报labor至少8小时。所以你不坏,他们是不会提前给你换的

A federal judge recently trimmed claims in a consolidated BMW engine defect
class action, but ruled that the automaker cannot escape the suit entirely.
U.S. District Judge William H. Walls partially granted and partially denied
BMW’s motion to dismiss claims that it sold vehicles with a known engine
defect.
Judge Walls dismissed allegations of negligent misrepresentation as well as
several individual claims from plaintiffs who he deemed did not have
standing to sue.
However, the court kept most of the plaintiffs’ claims for breach of
warranty, consumer fraud, and unjust enrichment.
The consolidated BMW engine defect class action includes allegations from 21
vehicle owners who filed their own individual BMW class action lawsuits
prior to consolidation.
The plaintiffs allege that the automaker concealed problems with their model
year 2012-2015 vehicles with N20 and N26 direct injection turbocharged
engines. A variety of vehicles are affected by the alleged defects including
certain X3 SUVs, 528xi sedans, and 328i sedans.
The BMW class action lawsuit also take issue with BMW’s warranty policies.
The automaker allegedly provided consumers with a express warranty lasting
four years or 50,000 miles.
However, plaintiffs claim that BMW knew that the warranty wasn’t sufficient
considering the engine defects plaguing the vehicles. The BMW class action
alleges that the warranty should have lasted 150,000 miles or 10 years.
Judge Walls determined that allegations for breach of express warranty can
be allowed to advance due to sufficiently detailed arguments brought by the
plaintiffs.
“Given both plaintiffs’ relative lack of power and sophistication and
allegations that BMW purposefully manipulated the warranty provision through
their superior knowledge, plaintiffs have sufficiently [pled] an express
warranty claim,” Judge Walls determined.
Vehicle owners in the BMW class action have allegedly spent thousands of
dollars attempting to fix the BMW engine defect problems.
Out of pocket repairs for the issues have ranged from $4,500 to $22,000,
motivating the plaintiffs’ fight to hold BMW accountable.
Plaintiffs and their counsel are reportedly satisfied with Judge Walls’
ruling and are ready to move forward with litigation.
“I get contacted regularly from consumers that have been victims of this
problem asking, ‘What’s the next step?’ and now we’ve reached the next
step,” plaintiff counsel said in a statement to Law 360. “It’s important
when you look at things in terms of dollars and cents, and the problem with
these vehicles’ timing chains and engine failures, it can be a real profit
center for a manufacturer when you can charge $15,000 for an engine failure.”
Plaintiffs in the BMW engine defect class action seek to represent a
nationwide Class of consumers affected by the problem as well as several
subclasses for states such as New Jersey, Illinois, Florida, Utah, New York,
Colorado, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, California, Wisconsin,
Oregon and North Carolina.
The BMW owners are represented by Joseph R. Santoli, Gary S. Graifman and
Jay I. Brody of Kantrowitz Goldhamer & Graifman PC; Bruce H. Nagel and
Randee M. Matloff of Nagel Rice LLP; and Thomas P. Sobran of Thomas P.
Sobran PC.
The BMW Engine Defect Class Action Lawsuit is Gelis, et al. v. Bayerische
Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft, et al., Case No. 2:17*-cv-07386, in the U.
S. District Court for the District of New Jersey
