How is it reprehensible on BMW's part that AT&T is shutting down 2G & 3G networks? They introduced new hardware before the announcement was made.
Just because no hardware resolution is officially available doesn't mean they don't exist. Some cars will be easier than others. The question is, how much would an affected party be willing to pay? $300-$500? Over $2000?
The mention of lawsuits is pretty disgusting and only renews the typical frivolous litigation stereotype that exists. The agreement between the parties is no less than solid and precedent in the matter has been established by the courts. Binding arbitration with AAA as the Arbitrator is as far as it would go.
Every car I've had since these services were introduced have been equipped with it and I've used it precisely Zero times. How will we ever survive without it?  |
If not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem, and your arrogant comment that “Every car I've had since these services were introduced have been equipped with it and I've used it precisely Zero times. How will we ever survive without it?” followed by a sigh reveals your naivety. I suppose you’ll sigh as well when upside down and unable to reach your phone or - even better - when your airbag fails to deploy and you crack your head.
Legalese does not absolve BMW, and if you would’ve taken a moment to read the posts above, you’d see how this is on BMW, especially since our vehicles are able to dial 911, but BMW restricts same, even in light of BMW Assist suspension. In fact, the FCC requires all cell phones – those not connected to a plan included – to be able to dial 911, our cars being no different. Safe travels.
