BMW, MINI integrated brakes may fail, need inspection
high How serious is it? About this label
This is serious because both stopping and control can be affected, and the notice does not say to stop driving, so book the free inspection promptly and get the vehicle checked right away if the pedal feels hard or brake warning lights come on.
What's wrong, in plain English
The integrated brake system in these vehicles can malfunction. When it does, you can lose the power assist that makes the brake pedal easy to press, so the pedal goes hard and the vehicle takes longer to stop. The fault can also stop the anti-lock brakes and the stability control from working, which can let you lose control of the vehicle. The dealer inspects the brake unit and replaces it if needed.
What you should do
2. Call your dealer or BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417 (Rolls-Royce 1-877-877-3735) to schedule the inspection.
3. If your vehicle was already repaired under recall 24V739 or 24V104, you still need this new repair done; it is free.
