Recalls

Issue: On certain vehicles, the power connector for the starter-generator may not have been manufactured properly.

As a result, the connection between the connector and the positive battery cable may be loose.

If this happens, there could be a loss of power to the wheels and/or the connection could overheat.

Safety Risk: A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.

Wiring that overheats could increase the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions: BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership.

For certain vehicles, the dealer will replace the starter-generator and positive battery cable.

For other vehicles, the dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the starter-generator and positive battery cable.
