“2017 BMW X1 has a transmission warning to use parking brake because of potential hazard of car rolling away while in park. I investigated this issue and there are hundreds of thousands of people who are receiving this warning as well. This is a major safety issue for the car, the risk of it rolling or not understanding that the car is properly in park. This needs to be covered as a recall for this make and model and BMW should cover this.”
NHTSA complaint #11611517, filed 2024-08“Warning message appears on dash every time you stop and start car - Secure Vehicle from Rolling, Dealer saying no active recall on it. But there should be.”
