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 both starter recall repairs and applicable park-outside instructions.
- Request transmission leak and rollaway recall completion documentation.
- Confirm tire label and plate lamp corrections; ask about brake problems.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any BMW dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
