BMW X5 AND X6 Recall |
Brakes may fail |
 BMW announced a problem with the X5 AND X6 affecting a total of 53 vehicles.
It has been identified that during the manufacturing process, cracks may have formed in the area of the brake disc body. Subsequent surface treatment means that any such crack will not be detectable at a later date. Should a crack have formed, this may cause the brake disc to fail whilst the vehicle is in motion causing the affected brake to become inoperative. Vehicles built from 5/22/2009 to 6/1/2009 are at risk.
Recalled vehicles will have the rear axle brake discs checked for the affected production date. The brake discs will be checked if necessary.
How to check your car's VIN number - vehicle identification number |
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should

who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
