BMW i4

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a problem with the electric drive motor software could cause the vehicle to enter a fail-safe mode. If this happens, there could be a loss of power to the wheels. 
Note: This problem would cause a warning light to turn on and a warning message to be displayed. 

Safety Risk: 
A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the electric drive motor software. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a BMW dealership.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the beam that supports the left-rear wheel arch may be cracked. As a result, the strength of the vehicle structure could be reduced in a crash. 

Safety Risk: 
Vehicle structure that isn't strong enough could increase the risk of a fire and/or injuries in a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the left-side support beam.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. 

Safety Risk: 
This error does not affect vehicle safety. 

Corrective Actions: 
This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.

Issue:
On a small number of vehicles, the combined charging unit (CCU) may not have been assembled correctly. As a result, power from the high-voltage battery could be interrupted while driving. If this happens, the vehicle could stall and lose power to the wheels.

Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of power could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the high-voltage battery combined charging unit (CCU).

Issue: 
This recall is for certain vehicles that had the body domain controller (BDC) electronic control unit (ECU) replaced during a dealer service visit. 

On certain vehicles, a programming error in the replacement BDC ECU could cause the automatic door locking function not to work. As a result, a door that is not locked could open in a severe crash. 

Safety Risk: 
A door that opens in a crash could increase the risk of injury. 

Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to reprogram the BDC ECU. To reduce the safety risk, BMW recommends that you should manually lock all doors before each trip until the recall repairs have been completed.
