BACK OVER PREVENTION — Obstructed Rearview Camera Image/FMVSS 111 · October 7, 2022

The problem

BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2023 330e and 330e xDrive hybrid electric vehicles. After shifting into reverse, the rearview camera software may cause a portion of the rearview image to be obstructed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

Risk

An obstructed rearview image can reduce the driver's visibility of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

What owners should do

Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 21, 2022. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-80-525-7417.
