While replacing the battery, the battery well was rusty. If allowed to continue I have no doubt the very heavy battery will fall through to the ground causing an accident and very hazardous materials will spill on the roadway (acids and lead from a ruptured battery).

I was involved in a major accident in a 2016 BMW 320I with front and passenger side impact. It was so bad, it pushed back my entire axle, wheels, etc. My driver side nor passenger side airbags failed to deploy. I was traveling 40 miles per hour when hit by another driver who was traveling downhill at or above the same speed. Sos button did not work either. This happened on a city street (intersection). The car is a total loss. I had two minors in the car with me. The message displayed on my dash, etc. Says something about faulty airbags, etc. Collision expert confirmed sensors definitely should have made front and side, curtain airbags deploy. They even another vehicle (same make and year) in their lot with same impact locations- though not as significant/serious- showing all airbags deployed. *tr

While the vehicle was being driven about 40 MPH, I heard what sounded like a gunshot or a loud pop overhead. I pulled over to see what happened and the sunroof had a hole in the middle and the glass was bowing upwards. There were no other cars passing me at the time and I did not see any projectiles coming toward the car that could have caused the damage. The sunroof just spontaneously shattered.
