BMW 1 SERIES AND 3 SERIES Recall

Possible loss of braking power assistance

BMW 1 SERIES AND 3 SERIES recall Nov 2006BMW announced a problem with the 1 SERIES AND 3 SERIES affecting a total of 287 vehicles.

A temporary fault in the greasing system on the brake servo sealing ring could lead to the sealing ring being subject to wear. In unfavourable conditions, the seal may be pressed into the brake servo housing as a consequence of increased friction. The arising leak, will cause a hissing sound audible within the vehicle interior, with the additional consequence that there may be a risk that loss of brake assistance will ensue. Vehicles built from 03/04/2006 to 03/14/2006 are at risk.

Recalled vehicles will have the brake servo replaced.

If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should find your nearest BMW dealer who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
