What Happened
The transmission wiring harness in your vehicle is the bundle of electrical wires that sends signals to your transmission. In some 2019-2020 M5 and M8 models, these wires can get damaged, causing a short circuit.
Risk if Unfixed
If the wiring harness gets damaged, the transmission could suddenly shift to neutral while you're driving, which means you'll lose power and control. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will fix the issue for free by replacing any damaged wiring harnesses and re-routing them to prevent future problems. You'll get a notification when it's time to schedule the repair.
