2 recalls covering model years 2018, 2019. 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.
Some trailer hitches installed on Mini Clubman and Countryman vehicles may not have enough support where they attach to the vehicle. Under certain loads, the hitch can sag, and in some cases it could separate from the vehicle entirely.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
| Model year | Recalls | High / critical | Do-not-drive / park-outside | Complaints | Crashes | Fires | Injuries |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

The 2018 MINI Clubman has the most, with 1 recall. The 2018 model year has the fewest of the years we cover, with 1. Newer model years have had less time to collect recalls, so a low count on a recent year is not a guarantee.
No. None of the 2 MINI Clubman recalls on file carries a do-not-drive or park-outside advisory from NHTSA.
