Vehicle report
2005 BMW 760I
This model year
What the record shows
The 2005 Bmw 760i is a large car, and the 2nd model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2004 to 2025.
The EPA rated one configuration: a single 6-litre twelve-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive only, a single transmission, Automatic (S6) and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy is 16 mpg.
The federal record holds 2 owner complaints, 3 safety recalls and 21 service bulletins for it.
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.
