Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with certain pirelli tires. The tires may have a damaged inner layer, possibly resulting in a rapid loss of pressure while the vehicle is moving.

Why it matters: A rapid loss of tire pressure while the vehicle is moving can affect vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Bmw has notified all of the affected owners, and dealers will replace the defective tires, free of charge. Bmw has contacted owners by telephone and those owners have had their cars remedied. Owner notification letters will not be sent.
