How recall repairs work

Repairs are free at any franchised BMW dealer — regardless of the vehicle's age or whether you bought it new.
Bring the NHTSA campaign number; it's printed on each recall on the model-year's page above, and on the notice you receive in the mail.
Call ahead: some recalls are announced before parts are available, and the dealer can tell you when yours are in.
Your VIN tells the dealer whether your exact vehicle is affected — the free check accepts one and never stores it.

Keep your vehicle

Save it to your free garage and we'll email you the day NHTSA files a new recall for it — free.
