Recall Alert: 2016 BMW 7 Series

CARS.COM

Vehicles Affected: Approximately 6,000 model-year 2016 BMW 7 Series sedans; affected models include 740Li, 750Li and 750Lxi vehicles manufactured between July 1 and Dec. 11, 2015

The Problem: An electrical short circuit could cause the airbag control module to randomly reset. This could disable the airbags, increasing the risk of an injury in a crash. BMW said it has not received any reports of injuries related to this recall. This issue is unrelated to the Takata airbag inflator [JG1]recall.

The Fix: Dealers will replace the airbag control module for free.

What Owners Should Do: BMW issued a stop-sale order to dealers until the issue is fixed. BMW will begin notifying owners May 16. Owners can call the automaker at 800-525-7417, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or go to www.safercar.gov for more info.
