Buying a used 2019 MINI Countryman? Check these 2 recalls first
Two open recalls: a crankshaft sensor fault that can stall the engine, and a missing fuel pump crash protection plate. Neither is flagged stop-driving or park-outside. Eleven unverified owner complaints sit with NHTSA — one crash, no fires or injuries — and engine is the largest group with four reports, which lines up with the stalling campaign. Air bags and fuel/propulsion each appear twice, alongside uncategorized reports.
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.
- Ask whether the crankshaft sensor recall was performed and if stalling ever occurred
- Confirm the fuel pump protection plate was installed
- Scan for stored engine and airbag fault codes before buying
- Open recalls are repaired free at any MINI dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
