The rotor and shaft within the integrated brake system may not have been welded properly and could separate during a hard braking event, possibly resulting in a loss of the Antilock Brake System (ABS) and braking assistance.
A loss of ABS and a reduction in braking assistance can increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the integrated brake system free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin April 5, 2021.
Owners may contact BMW customer service at (800) 525-7417.
