What Happened
The ESC control module in your vehicle is a critical computer that helps your car stay stable and controlled while driving. It's a small part with tiny welds that could break, causing big problems.
Risk if Unfixed
If the welds break, your power brakes could fail, making it harder to stop your car. You could also lose control of your vehicle, especially on slippery roads or when cornering, which could increase the risk of a serious crash.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will replace the faulty ESC control module with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice and contact BMW Customer Service at 1-800-525-7417 to confirm the recall status.
