Before you buy
- 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.
- Verify passenger airbag, airbag panel, and seatback weld recall completion.
- Request documentation of the rear brake caliper coating remedy.
- Check the backup camera image and ask about electrical faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any BMW dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
