THE CARS BRAKES KEEP SCREECHING LOUD. I REACHED OUT TO BMW AND THEY STATED THAT THE BRAKES KEEP SCREECHING BECAUSE THIS CAR IS A PERFORMANCE VEHICLE BUT SOMEONE WHO WORKS AT BMW TOLD ME THAT ITS NOT TRUE AND THAT BMW MADE A MISTAKE WHEN BUILDING THE CAR AND THAT I AM NOT THE FIRST CUSTOMER TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO RESOLVE IT.
