From: MERP_LRC [student@iupui.edu] Sent: Friday, October 23, 1998 9:52 AM To: info@bmw.com; i_am_mad_too@bmwlemon.com Subject: My BMW was defective BMW knew that there was a problem with the cooling system of 93 BMW 318's. But they do something about it. Heck no! They were too busy making money selling headgaskets, and the dealers were happy making 600 dollars to put them in. Now that I have suffered from the problem, been stranded on desolate highway at midnight on cold rainy Indiana night, and out of 1200 dollars, you would think that they would be apologetic. Not a chance. Get this, they still claim that there is no defect with my BMW even though they have, FINALLY, decided to do a recall for the problem. Will they now refund my money. They have told me NO WAY!! They have until the end of October to do right by me. After which I will do what I have to, to let people know what happened to me. I am a medical student and my email goes to over 6000 medical pros - all potential BMW buyers. I think that they ought to know. K. Alam Indianapolis INDIANA
