European Union 2014–2020

Bmw 3 series, 5 series, 7 series

Water may enter the starter motor and cause damage. As a result, the engine may no longer start, or the starter motor may short-circuit or remain continuously activated.
European Union 2025–2026

Bmw iX3

The convenience charging electronics module may have a manufacturing fault. If the module fails during charging, electrical current may flow through the vehicle body.
European Union 2020–2026

Bmw Series 2, Series 3, Series 4, Series 5, Series 6, Series 7, X3, X4, X5, X6, Z4

The RSW22 starter with reinforced water tightness (RWT) may experience increased abrasion of the magnetic contact, causing deposits to build up at the lowest point inside the relay. These deposits may increase relay contact resistance, leading to starting failures or short circuits.
European Union 2007–2013

Bmw Série 1 (E82, E88)

The propellant in the driver airbag may deteriorate over time. If the airbags deploy, it could result in fragments from the inflator injuring the vehicle's occupants. European Union 2011–2015

Bmw Série 1 (E81; E82; E87; E88) - Série 3 (E90; E91; E92; E93)

The propellant in the driver airbag may deteriorate over time. If the airbags deploy, it could result in fragments from the inflator injuring the vehicle's occupants.
European Union 2025–2026

Bmw iX3

The head airbags in the affected vehicles may not have been bolted according to specifications, which could cause the airbag to deploy incorrectly or the inflator to move out of position and strike occupants in the event of an accident, leading to injury.
European Union 2014–2020

Bmw C evolution

The connectors of the 12 V battery supplying the DC/DC converter are insufficiently sealed against splash water. This may allow water to penetrate the connectors and cause a short circuit and lead to a fire.
European Union 2022–2025

Bmw 5 series, 7 series, i5, i7, M5

The cockpit cable harness may be damaged when the microfilter is replaced. This can lead to a short circuit, with smoke build-up resulting in fire.
European Union 1998–2003

Bmw Série 5 (E39) - X5 (E53)

The chemical substances in the inflators of the TAKATA PSDI4 airbags may deteriorate over time, particularly in warm, humid climates. This could cause the airbag to rupture with too much force in the event of an accident, which could lead to serious or even fatal injuries in the worst-case scenario. European Union 2006–2015

Bmw 1, 3, X1, X3, M3

The driver airbag inflator may malfunction due to long-term degradation. In this case, if the airbag is deployed in an accident, the internal pressure in the inflator may be too high. European Union 1998–2006

Bmw 3 series, M3

The driver airbag inflator may malfunction due to long-term degradation. In this case, if the airbag is deployed in an accident, the internal pressure in the inflator may be too high. European Union 2020–2024

Bmw X3 (G01) - X4 (G02) - Série 5 (G30)

The failure concerns the RSW22 starter, type RWT (reinforced for watertightness). Increased abrasion of the magnetic contact can lead to the formation of deposits at the lowest point of the relay interior.
European Union 2020–2024

Bmw Série 2 - Série 3 - Série 4 - Série 5 - Série 6 - Série 7 - X3 - X4 - X5 - X6 - Z4

The failure concerns the RSW22 starter, type RWT (reinforced for watertightness). Increased abrasion of the magnetic contact can lead to the formation of deposits at the lowest point of the relay interior. European Union 2020–2024

Bmw Série 2 - Série 3 - Série 4 - Série 5 - Série 6 - X3 - X4 - X5

The failure concerns the RSW22 starter, type RWT (reinforced for watertightness). Increased abrasion of the magnetic contact can lead to the formation of deposits at the lowest point of the relay interior. European Union 2020–2024

Bmw Série 2 (G42) - Série 3 (G20; G21; G28)

The failure concerns the RSW22 starter, type RWT (reinforced for watertightness). Increased abrasion of the magnetic contact can lead to the formation of deposits at the lowest point of the relay interior.
European Union 2023–2025

Bmw X3

The steering system sensor may malfunction causing an unintended steering movement of the vehicle. This increases the risk of accidents and injuries. European Union 2014

Bmw 2er, 3er, 4er

The accumulator in the head airbag inflator may not have been manufactured in accordance with specifications. Over time this could cause it to leak.
European Union 2025

Bmw X1, X2, 1 series, 2 series

The seatbelts in the second row may not have been manufactured correctly and could cause the car-sensitivity sensors to fail. This could reduce the protective effect of the seatbelts and lead to injuries.
European Union 2018–2025

Bmw X5, X6, X7, 7, 8 (Coupe, Cabrio, Cran Coupe), M340

The engine starter’s electrical contacts may overheat and cause the vehicle to start improperly. Continued starting attempts can intensify the overheating and ignite surrounding components, potentially leading to a vehicle fire while driving or shortly after parking. European Union 2015–2021

Bmw 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, X3, X4, X5, X6, X7, Z4, 3Li Limousine

Water may come into contact with the starter relay and gradually cause corrosion. This could affect the electrical connection inside the relay and make the engine difficult to start.
