On 10/25/26 the vehicle suddenly lost power and became immobile as I started to drive. Then the parking brake could not be released, doors and windows were stuck in the open position, the trunk was stuck locked. The key fob was functional but the vehicle displayed more error messages when I tried to use the fob as directed by BMW Roadside Assistance. My safety was put at risk because the car failed suddenly as I was exiting a parking lot and about to enter the freeway and would have been dangerous to lose complete power on the freeway. The vehicle was towed to the BMW dealership. On 10/27/26 the BMW dealer service center inspected the vehicle confirmed the battery was defective and was a cause or result of the car’s malfunction, the dealer confirmed an orange dashboard warning light for an error in engine management. The dealer then claimed the dashboard warning light was somehow unrelated and claimed the battery cannot be covered by dealer warranty. Prior to the vehicle losing power there were other symptoms of possible electrical problems such as the dome/reading lights spontaneously and repeatedly turning on while I was driving, the display gave messages that my phone was charging in the tray, however the phone would fail to charge, and the headlights/brake lights would sometimes come on spontaneously.

In November 2025, I was driving an errand on city streets in a neighborhood. Speed was approximately 30-35MPH. Two lane road. There were no hazards in the road and while I was descending down a hill, my forward collision/emergency braking system activating, causing my vehicle to come to a complete and full stop from road speed. This had happened several other times when reversing out of parking spots into traffic or driving position but since the speed was slow and I do have cross traffic/collision avoidance, I initially I assume it was related to surrounding vegetation and sensor sensitivity. The issue happened again in December 2025 but I was moving at a much slower pace. In May 2025, I had the BMW integrated braking system recall addressed (NHTS #24V1040034860200). However, per the NHTSAA website, it appears there was a subsequent recall/safety repair required for the exact same issue, NHTS Recall #24V739000. I was not aware of this; was not notified by the dealership nor BMW and it could correlate to this issue. On June 4, 2026, I took my BMW to the BMW of El Cajon dealership in order to investigate the issue, as well as to address a nail in a tire and a brake warning light. Prior to attending the appointment, I noted the second recall for the braking system. However, the dealership is not checking or simply stating that there is no open recall on my vehicle which does not correlate with the NHTSA website. I am pushing this issue up the administrative chain of command but

Am writing to report a potential safety and fire hazard issue involving my BMW X1, along with ongoing electrical concerns I have experienced with this vehicle since purchase. Approximately two weeks ago, for the first time in three years, I needed to bring the vehicle in for an oil change. Due to my work commute of more than two hours each way, neither the BMW dealership near my home nor the one near my workplace was able to accommodate me within a reasonable timeframe. Because I could not continue driving without service, I brought the vehicle to Jiffy Lube for an oil change. During the visit, I agreed to replace the cabin/carbon air filter as recommended. Approximately three weeks later, while driving, I turned on the air conditioning and immediately noticed a strong burning smell coming from the vents. Concerned about a possible electrical or overheating issue, I turned the air off immediately. I contacted BMW service and the earliest available appointment was scheduled for May 20, 2026. During the scheduling call, the BMW service representative informed me that my vehicle also had an active recall that would be addressed during my appointment. When I asked for details, I was told it involved a “software update issue.” On May 18, 2026, I attempted to use the air conditioning again. This time, the burning smell became significantly worse and was combined with a musty odor. Shortly afterward, the ventilation system stopped blowing air entirely. When I arrived at BMW service,

Right around mid-December 2025, I parked my car, and went to bed, just to wake up on a notification that my battery was depleted and I should go to a service center. I went to the nearest BMW dealership, and had them check out the issue. They said it was caused by 2 incidents where I the car's engine was off with key on for 9 minutes and 10 minutes respectively. and therefore it is my fault and the battery is damaged. So, they had to replace it, and they charged me $1,100 for it. I still don't see how that's my fault, because when I put the car in parking and not exit, the engine turns itself off anyways, but entertainment stays on.

1 Brakes: The brakes seem to have excessive wear. The car was purchased new and started making loud squeaking noises after about 18k miles. The squeaking sometimes went away after regular maintenance, but usually reappeared withing a few hundred miles of driving. Two different BMW dealership service centers examined the car at different times and claimed the squeaking was a sensor, however there was never a dashboard light or computerized message stating the same. At about 29K, a dashboard light and computerized message displayed warning the brakes needed regular maintenance. Strangely, the loud squeaking went away as soon as the dashboard light displayed. 2 Lane Keeping Assistance: the car will attempt to swerve into other lanes, fighting my attempts to control the steering wheel. This happens when lane markings have been redrawn, but the vehicle is detecting the painted-over lines and tries to divert to there instead. It also happens when a lane has an option to split into different directions. If I am driving straight, the vehicle will try to swerve into the alternate direction, instead of proceeding in the direction the car is already traveling. This sometimes risks driving into a curbs or barriers that separate the directions and has occurred numerous times.

I am filing this complaint regarding the unresolved safety recall for the Integrated Brake System (IBS) on my 2023 BMW X1. The recall, issued in February 2024, addresses critical safety issues, including the potential loss of power brake assist, Antilock Brake System (ABS) failure, and compromised Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). These defects increase the risk of accidents, particularly in emergency braking situations or poor driving conditions. Since the recall’s announcement, BMW Corporate has repeatedly confirmed that no official remedy is available, most recently in December 2024. However, my original dealership, BMW of Norwood, recently contacted me and claimed they could perform the repair immediately. This is contradictory and suspicious, as I had escalated the issue to BMW Corporate earlier in the week and mentioned my intent to seek legal counsel. Additionally, I have attempted to appraise or trade my vehicle multiple times since August 2024, but the recall has made this impossible, leaving me with financial and safety concerns. The dealership’s sudden claim that parts are available, without issuing a formal notice or providing documentation, raises concerns about improper recall handling or miscommunication between BMW Corporate and its dealerships. This delay, coupled with inconsistent information, leaves me and other affected customers at ongoing risk. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate BMW’s handling of this recall, ensure a consistent remedy is made

The touch screen on the passenger side wasn't functional - it was completely black except for a small BMW logo. Tried turning off the car and turning it back on, but that didn't solve the problem. As a result I was unable to change the temperature/AC, use navigation or the back up camera - important safety and comfort features. A few hours later when I returned to use the car it was functioning properly. The issue continued, and on August 15, 2024 the car was brought to the service center for evaluation (car was dropped off while the screen was black) - car was evaluated, reset and returned on 8/16 claiming the issue was resolved. (2 days) However: When we got the keys and pulled the car into the driveway the screen was black, again! The following week, the car was returned to the service center - issue could not be recreated so BMW agreed to replace the entire computer system. Today, when dropping off the car for the integrated breaking system recall, I was offered an x1 loaner from the dealership. When I turned on the car it also had a black screen on the passenger side - needless to say I requested another vehicle!

A deer was standing ahead in the road and I began to brake! I was only going 25-30mph. The brakes were hard to push and it felt like something was malfunctioning eventually hitting the deer straight on!!! The Automatic Braking System did NOT work, the forward collision warning did NOT work and the BRAKES did not work after pressing hard to brake to avoid a collision!!! I have had this BMW for over a year and have had several recalls that the dealership fixed EXCEPT for the IB recall issued on 2/12/24 that they still have NO REMEDY!!!!!!! Not only is this a MAJOR safety issue that I've expressed to them many times- the worst has happened now and my braking system FAILED causing a collision!!! The Phil Hughes service dept. has lied about filling my washer fluid and that the faulty battery issue was due to it sitting too long! I drive this car EVERY DAY!! They also did not even disclose to me that there were faulty sensor issues when I had it serviced recently!! I do NOT trust them at this point!! Just this past week my check engine light went off and on. My husband unscrewed and screwed on the gas cap - the light was still on and then just went off as I was driving the next day! My battery still goes completely dead for unknown reasons....... I DO NOT FEEL SAFE!!! I am disabled from being rear-ended from a tractor trailer 4 years ago and this car has completely TRAUMATIZED me all over again and I will not drive this BMW ever again!!

They thought it was not a problem, but when I explained the issue of rear cross traffic I was told to bring my vehicle in and that there is a fix. When asked why this doesn't work, or if this is a software update that was missed I was told that they do not know. Only that it is something that they can " add " to my vehicle. No clear explanation.

While returning home with my wife and cat, we were approaching a train crossing when I attempted to slow down, already under the posted speed limit and I pressed the brakes very lightly to begin slowing to a stop. The brakes locked up and we began sliding toward the train crossing arms and moving train on the tracks, I attempted pumping the brakes at that point realizing something was very wrong. With every slight touch of the brakes the vehicle would skid more, left, and right, until we came to a screeching halt mere feet from the train crossing arms. I have been told now by BMW roadside assistance that my vehicle is still safe to use. Then when I disagreed was transferred to "master mechanic " who promptly told me it was unsafe for me and others on the road. He set up a tow and it was towed away that same day. Now I have spoken to two different Certified BMW dealers, one of whom I purchased the vehicle from. They both said there's nothing they can do about it as there's no fix. The dealer that currently has is said it's safe to drive and I need to plan to pick it up. This is an absolute disaster of immense proportions that is going to cost someone their life undoubtedly. I was willing to let the vehicle sit until a fix was made available but only to be told that they have no loaners available for me. I paid for my vehicle in full at purchase, and this is the product and service I am provided by doing so. Reprehensible.

Recall has been ongoing since February. Received notice and letter that remedy was available and took the car to dealer. Remedy was implemented but it still shows as an open recall. Sees like the manufacturer has failed to remedy or is not able to.

Thankfully, I have not been involved in an accident to-date, but my 2023 BMW X1 has been the subject of a recall involving its braking system since February 2024, with no available remedy as of August 15, 2024. The lack of urgency by BMW to fix an issue involving the safety of its customers and vehicles' occupants is startling. This is unacceptable. I request that NHTSA investigate this issue and hold BMW accountable for remedying the issue now as it has gone beyond a reasonable amount of time to fix the issue. If a fix is not available, BMW should be made to buy back my vehicle.

The recall number for the incident is 24V-104. The car was recalled in February and the recall repair was completed May 2, 2024. The car is currently at BMW and is available for inspection.BMW has confirmed that the parts they replaced in May malfunctioned. They claim that some of the recall parts had a mechanical problem and that the recent repair, July, was done with parts that had been inspected. On July 22, 2024, I was backing up and when I braked the car jolted as if I hit something and the computer screen showed ABS and parking brake malfunction. When I engaged the brakes they were hesitant and took a long time to stop the car. Fortunately, I was in a parking lot with no cars around so there was ample space for the car to come to a stop. Had I been on the highway or main road, I would have been in an accident as I would not have had enough distance to stop.

The vehicle is equipped with a dual clutch transmission and has the EPA mandated auto-start feature. When you stop the vehicle and the engine shuts off and then remove your foot from the brake to go forward, the engine hesitates to restart and then starts, revs, dumps the clutch and propels you forward at a dangerous rate. My wife was trying to pull into the garage and stopped a little short. When she tried to move forward about a foot, the car started and lurched forward hitting the house. There is no way to disable the auto start feature and there are no buttons in the car. This is going to get someone killed when they are trying to make a left turn across traffic and first the car doesn't restart and then it starts and flies into traffic. I complained to BMW and they say this is the way the government mandates the car to be.

Complaints 1-50 of 71, newest first, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
