Recall Service & Dealership Highlights
Safety Comes First
NHTSA recall information for the 2020 BMW Z4 includes a fuel-tank weld that may fail and permit a fuel leak, creating a fire risk near an ignition source. Two headlight concerns may cause glare, reduced visibility, or loss of one or both headlights, increasing crash risk. A backup-camera problem may leave the display without an image, making it harder to see behind the vehicle.
