Tailgate suddenly opens without warning. Happened twice this month while car was parked and engine was turned off, as well as while car was stopped, in park, and engine was running. Note that this happened repeatedly during the first year of ownership, and bmw monterey (california) tried at least 4 times to fix it. Claimed it was finally fixed, and it did not recur for some months, but once again it is happening.

Going to park at an outdoor public parking lot i was going at slow speed made two left turns to get to my my parking space. More than half way into parking spot the car suddenly accelerated and jump the curve going down a small incline and jumping the curve of the parking space below at that time able to control car. Lucky that there was no person walking or a car parked in the parking space below because it would have caused a head-on collision or something even worse, as far as i can see there was no damage to car. My wife was in the car and she was shook by incident!!! Incident happen very sudden and unexpected. I have seen multiple similar incidents on internet and it seems like dealership can't replicate the issue and they dismiss it.

We previously had an issue with this vehicle where the dashboard gauges were shifting a few inches to the left and lost visibility to the speedometer. This was resolved after a few visits with the gauge cluster being replaced. We are now having an issue where occasionally the dashboard gauge cluster will go completely blank for a few seconds. The idrive components remain on during this time. It's difficult to take a picture, as it only occurs while driving. There does not seem to be any consistency to when this occurs, but it does not happen when stationary. The times it has happened, it does seem to be while accelerating after a turn.

Tailgate opens on its own. Once in motion more often after loading dogs in the back, closing it and then it opens as i open the drivers door. A fix is to start the car first the open the tailgate and close that seems to help.
