Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Traction control and brake warning lights come on at start up and do not turn off. Problem is intermittent at this time. Dealer reports that it is the szl module (steering angle sensor) is failing. Bmw issued a service bulletin on the 2006 5 and 6 series for this same sensor. Reading the Mini forums this seems to be a fairly common problem. Car has 17,800 miles”
