2021 BMW X5 Recall: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

2021 BMW X5 Recall: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

What's affected: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2021 X5 sDrive40i and X5 xDrive40i vehicles. The right front brake disc may have been assembled with incorrect fasteners, which over time, could result in the front brake disc becoming loose.

The risk: A loose brake disc could affect vehicle handling and control, and increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the right front brake disc and replace it if necessary, along with the unaffected left side brake disc, free of charge. There are no owner vehicles affected; therefore, owner notification is not necessary and, as such, a planned owner notification date is not entered into the recall schedule.

Owners may contact BMW's customer service at 1-800-525-7417.

If you drive a 2021 BMW X5 (or any European/Japanese vehicle), Boca Auto Care can check whether this recall applies to your VIN and help with the remedy. NHTSA campaign 21V089000.
