What This Recall Means

Component

BACK OVER PREVENTION:WARNINGS:EXTERNAL/PEDESTRIAN ALERT

What Happened
The external warning sound system in your i4 eDrive40 or iX xDrive50 is designed to alert pedestrians when you're approaching on foot. It's like a silent horn that warns people of your electric vehicle's presence.
Risk if Unfixed
If the sound system fails, pedestrians may not hear you coming, which could lead to accidents and injuries. You could be approaching someone unaware, and that's a serious safety risk.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will update the software that controls the external warning sound, making sure it works properly. This update is free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.
