The 2019 BMW M5 has 3 recalls in this group, addressing a fuel pump that may crack and leak, transmission wiring that may short, and a disappearing rearview camera image.

The complaint record lists 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Obtain fuel-pump recall repair records and check for leakage.
3. Verify completion of the transmission wiring recall.
4. Confirm camera recall completion and ask about engine faults.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any BMW dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
