Details

What's wrong: The rear brake caliper pistons on these vehicles may have an insufficient coating, potentially reducing rear brake performance.

Why it matters: A reduction of braking performance can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will bleed the rear brake circuit, free of charge. The recall began August 31, 2018.
