NHTSA recall 17V087000
Electrical System · BMW of North America, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles may have battery positive (b+) cables that develop high resistance in the connections to the fuse box.
Why it matters: The high resistance may result in loss of the cable's electrical connection, possibly causing an engine stall and preventing the vehicle from restarting, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will replace the b+ cable connector with one that is silver coated and better secure it to the fuse box, free of charge. The recall began April 3, 2017.
