1988 BMW 740ILA User Comment / Complaint

Faulty radiators that have a design flaw that allows for the radiator neck to break off without notice and spray hot coolant everywhere. this problem is well known just visit roadfly.org e38 message board and search for "radiator neck." this typically occurs between 50,000-70,000 miles. my radiator blew at 62,380 miles while driving at close to 45miles per hour. could have caused a fatal crash as there was smoke every where.
