Great video, watched it at least 10 times. The back wheels are definitely sliding and locked, but the front wheels are definitely turning/rolling. The treadmarks that are easily visible on the pictures must have been when you backed up.

Interested to see what BMW says about this.
I better go pick up my car before we get another recall.

I'm missing how the type of tire matters here, as the front were rolling forward dragging the rear. Shouldn't all the wheels be locked?

Summer tires will slide like that. I see it all the time at ski resorts where cars slide sideways into each other in the parking lot.

Sideways is a slide. Rear wheels dragging is a slide. Front wheels rolling is a brake/motor not holding the car problem. Will think twice about backing up and parking on any hill.

Was the front-end pointed downhill?

I'm genuinely concerned now that the car is unable to keep itself from sliding if there is any reason for the back tires to have less friction than required (to counteract the car weight). I mean, if I'm on a steep hill and the street is wet...will the car slide?
