Details
What's wrong: The needle roller bearings of the counterbalance shafts may have been improperly installed, potentially causing the counterbalance shaft to loosen.
Why it matters: If the counterbalance shaft loosens, severe engine damage could occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will replace the engine, free of charge. The recall began December 13, 2019.
