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 VIN-specific completion of all applicable brake system recalls.
- Obtain knee airbag recall repair documentation.
- Ask for diagnostic records covering brake, stability-control, and collision-warning 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.
