5 common questions answered
NHTSA’s three reported recalls address important safety concerns. A potentially improperly welded driver’s frontal air bag inflator could separate during deployment, allowing metal to strike occupants and potentially causing serious injury or death. Damaged child-seat lower anchor bars could increase a child’s injury risk in a crash. A driver’s-side exterior mirror that does not meet US requirements may make nearby vehicles seem farther away, increasing crash risk. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved. Because a recall remedy is defined by BMW, checking your VIN promptly is the most responsible way to learn whether your vehicle needs attention.
