I had a tire pressure warning come up on screen during the drive yesterday but the on board computer said I can resume the drive as the car is equipped with run-flat tires.
Well, it turns out that these Pirelli tires are not run flats and the pressure dropped quickly and below critical. The car has no spare tire, no tire-puncture fix solutions in place, no high-jack or even a pump included.
The car is the “Ultimate pack”… Does this sound normal?
Bought the car new from BMW.
All I can see is a hydraulic jack holding up a car with no jackstand there for safety, which I would say is pretty normal for a shop that does not care about training or safety.
You gotta read the description under the photo
If all they are doing is a tire it’s no issue. Nobody is getting underneath that thing
Considering BMW dealers hire literally kids out of high-school, I’m not surprised.
Lube and tire tech is an entry-level position, so yeah, it’s a perfect job for someone right out of high school. Would you rather them have an associates?
Every manufacturer does… not just bmw.
Jacks are suitable for use when changing out a tire, but not for working under the car.
It’s not like the Tech is crawling under the car to change the tire
