Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

NHTSA identifies three air bag recalls for certain 2015 BMW X1 vehicles. The affected driver air bag inflators may degrade or rupture, and one defect involves an inflator that can explode. In a crash requiring deployment, sharp metal fragments could strike the driver or other occupants, potentially causing serious injury or death. Waiting to confirm recall status leaves an important safety question unresolved. A manufacturer recall notice, a concern about this model year, or uncertainty about a past repair is a good reason to check the VIN promptly. The recall remedy is defined by BMW and is performed at no charge when the vehicle is eligible.
