ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ADAS:DRIVER MONITORING:CAMERA/SENSOR

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
Your vehicle's driver monitoring camera system helps the safety features know when you're paying attention to the road. In some 2023-2024 models, the electrical connection to this system might not be properly attached.
Risk if Unfixed
If this connection is loose, the system won't work as it should. This means the emergency stopping assistant might not kick in if you're not holding the steering wheel, which could increase your risk of being in a crash.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will check and secure the electrical connection to the driver monitoring system, free of charge. You should schedule this repair as soon as you get the recall notice.

The ground connection to the steering wheel may not have been attached correctly, resulting in an inoperative hands-on detection system.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
An inoperative hands-on detection system may fail to detect when the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel and therefore not engage the emergency stopping assistant system, increasing the risk of a crash.
Original — Remedy
Dealers will inspect and reattach the ground connection as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 8, 2023. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
