Well, just happened to us. We are on a road trip, about 400 miles between home and our destination. Used the SOS button, but the only thing they can suggest is to tow the car if we think it's unsafe to drive. They offered to give us directions to the nearest dealer, but we declined. Using the navi to find the nearest dealer that is on our route (see, iDrive is good for something after all
).
We drove mostly highway speeds (at least!). Car is less than a year old. Really don't think it's the battery.
We stopped to get gas... Think it worked after that. Then drove about 60 Seconds to a eating place. Came out and had the issue with the car nicely warmed up in the sun.
Our rear (or front) defroster doesn't work either, so not sure if it is exactly the same problem. Maybe just a fuse after all?
