VISIBILITY Safety Recalls

Moderate #22V267000 Plain English
Component

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The sunroof control system in your vehicle is a computer that makes sure the sunroof opens and closes safely. In some cases, this computer might be set up incorrectly, allowing the sunroof to close without you inside.
Risk if Unfixed
If the sunroof closes on you without the key fob, you could be injured by the glass or the roof's moving parts. This is a serious safety risk.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will reprogram the sunroof control system to ensure it only closes when you're inside with the key fob. This repair is free, and you should schedule it after checking repair availability with your dealer. This timing describes the original 2022 filing; contact your dealer now to confirm the free repair is available.
