BMW X5: Brakes May Fail
- Recalling firm
- BMW
- Product
- Vehicles: BMW X5, BMW X6. Units affected: 106
- Reason
- It has been identified that during the manufacturing process cracks may have formed in the area of the brake disc body. Subsequent surface treatment means that any such crack will not be detectable at a later date. Should a crack have formed this may cause the brake disc to fail whilst the vehicle is in motion causing the affected brake to become inoperative. Remedy: Recalled vehicles will have the rear axle brake discs checked for the affected production date. The brake discs will be checked if necessary.
