NHTSA recall 19V755000
Structure · BMW of North America, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The interior trunk release cable may have been improperly installed, preventing the opening of the trunk from the inside. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 401, "internal trunk release."
Why it matters: If a person were inside the trunk compartment, they may not be able to get out, increasing their risk of injury.
The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the interior trunk release cable and properly install the cable, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began December 13, 2019.
