My 2008 RT broke down yesterday with EWS as the problem. It is the antenna for the key. The bike was recalled a few weeks ago to have the problem sorted, well it’s not! So if you have a late model RT do yourself a favour and get it checked out ASAP. There is a known problem even in the bikes that have been recalled.
BMW call out were absolutely useless. The guy on the other end could not communicate, didn’t have any idea as to our whereabouts. He couldn’t get hold of anyone save for Hammoad’s who apparently couldn’t give any idea as to when the bike would be picked up. Thank goodness we had Alfie’s number from Donford’s; he responded immediately and was with us within 2 1/2 hours. If he didn’t we would still be sitting on the N2.
Can anybody give me a name and e-mail, Tel number of the MD of BMW in Gauteng? I need to express my utter disappointment.
