Vehicle report
2007 BMW 328CI
This model year
What the record shows
The 2007 Bmw 328ci is a subcompact car, and the 8th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2000 to 2011.
The EPA rated two configurations: a single 3-litre six-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 21 to 22 mpg depending on which one you have.
No complaints, recalls, investigations or service bulletins are on the federal record for this model year.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
