Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles have a dynamic electronic suspension adjustment (esa) rear shock absorber. The piston rod within the rear shock absorber can break without warning, causing loss of stability.
Why it matters: If the piston rod breaks it will cause loss of stability, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will replace the dynamic esa shock absorber, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in July 2014.
