“I received a recall notice for Integrated Brake Failure on February 2024, but the manufacturer has still not provided a remedy or parts as of July 4th 2025. I contacted the dealer and was told there is no ETA for the repair. I believe this delay is unreasonable, and I am concerned about the safety implications of continuing to drive the vehicle”
NHTSA complaint #11671218, filed 2025-07“I had a situation where the vehicle brakes were not effective on the freeway and had severe vibration while hitting the pedal, I had to almost pump the brakes to come to a complete stop. the car had no warnings and the dealership was notified, they claimed there is an open recall for the braking system and the remedy is unavailable.”
NHTSA complaint #11620865, filed 2024-10“I have had an open recall for BRAKING since February 12. Both BMW USA and my local deal say they cannot or will not fix the issue. Again, this is for braking. BMW USA has not responded to multiple emails. I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle. It is on a lease and I wish to terminate the lease with no penalty.”
NHTSA complaint #11682118, filed 2025-08“Safety features did not work. I was parking and when brakes were pressed car accelerated instead of stopping, plowing into the car ahead and two additional cars. No automatic braking, no manual braking. The car is now in a BMW shop for repairs and evaluation. My warning features did not activate.”
NHTSA complaint #11600101, filed 2024-07“There is a recall on the car’s braking system that can malfunction at any moments. The issue was discovered back in Feb 2024 10 mos ago & no solution it’s a huge risk as per BMW to me my family & anyone on the road. 10 months and no solution is unacceptable it’s DANGEROUS”
