Address Safety Concerns

NHTSA recall information identifies air bag, battery, and brake vacuum pump concerns for the 2014 BMW X1. An air bag inflator may rupture and send sharp metal fragments toward occupants during deployment, creating a risk of serious injury or death. A battery positive cable connection may develop high resistance, potentially causing an engine stall and preventing restart.
