Brakes

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the tell-tale (warning light) for the antilock brake system (ABS) doesn't light up in the instrument cluster when you start the vehicle. Canadian regulations require the ABS tell-tale to turn on during the start-up sequence to tell you that the ABS is working. Note: The braking system will continue to work normally, and the ABS tell-tale will turn on when there is a problem with the ABS.

Safety Risk

If the ABS tell-tale does not turn on during start-up, you may not know if the ABS is working correctly. A problem with the ABS will cause a warning message to appear on the vehicle's central information display screen, even if the ABS tell-tail fails.

Corrective Action & Repair

BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer update the vehicle software.

Seats And Restraints

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the passenger seat belt assemblies may contain defective automatic locking retractors (ALR). As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock to secure a child seat.

Safety Risk

A seat belt that is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the seat belts. They will be replaced, if necessary.

Structure

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, if the driver uses the automatic sunroof closing feature, then switches the ignition key to "off" or "lock", the sunroof could continue to close. Canadian regulations require the key to be in "on", "start" or "accessory" in order to operate the sunroof.

Safety Risk

A sunroof that keeps moving once the vehicle is switched off could increase the risk of injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to reprogram the sunroof operation.
