2 recalls covering model years 2018. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
On certain BMW and MINI vehicles, the crankshaft sensor may be installed with incorrect firmware. This incorrect firmware can prevent the sensor from properly reading signals from the crankshaft reluctor ring. As a result, the vehicle may stall while it is being driven. BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the crankshaft sensor, free of charge, to correct the problem.
BMW is recalling certain 230i, 230i xDrive, M240i, M240i xDrive, M2, and X3 xDrive 30i vehicles. A software error in the instrument panel may prevent the display from lighting up properly. This can happen at startup or while driving, and can affect warning and control symbols shown on the display. Dealers will update the instrument cluster display software to fix the problem, free of charge to owners.
