BMW recall overview: 

  • Who: BMW issued a recall for nearly 80,000 vehicles earlier this month. 
  • Why: The automaker initiated the recall over concerns the vehicles’ integrated braking system could malfunction, leading to braking issues and increasing the risk of a crash. 
  • Where: The recall affects BMW and Rolls-Royce vehicle owners nationwide. 

BMW issued a recall for nearly 80,000 vehicles earlier this month over concerns their integrated brake system could malfunction, leading to braking issues. 

The recall involves certain of the following models and model years:

  • 2023: X1 xDrive28i
  • 2023-2024: X7 xDrive40i, X7 M60i, XB7, XM, 740i, 740i xDrive, 760i xDrive, i7 eDrive50, i7 xDrive60, i7 M70
  • 2024: X5 sDrive40i, X5 xDrive40i, X5 M60i, X5M, X5 xDrive50e, X6 xDrive40i, X6M60i, X6M, 750e xDrive, i5 eDrive40, i5 M60,530i, 530i xDrive, Rolls-Royce Spectre

BMW says it is concerned a malfunction with the vehicles’ integrated brake system could lead to a loss of power brake assist or cause their anti-lock brake and dynamic stability control systems to not function correctly, according to the recall notice.

“A loss of power brake assist can extend the distance required to stop the vehicle,” the BMW recall states. “Additionally, malfunctioning ABS and/or DSC systems can cause a loss of vehicle control.”

BMW dealers to replace integrated braking systems at no cost

BMW will remedy the issue by having its dealers replace the integrated braking system on the recalled vehicles free of charge, according to the recall. The automaker says it expects to mail owner notification letters April 5, 2024. 

Vehicle owners who have more questions about the recall can contact BMW directly at (800) 525-7417 or Rolls-Royce at 877-877-3735. 

BMW separately recalled 51 vehicles in March 2023 over concerns their front seat frames may not have been properly welded to the seat rails.
