BMW X6

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the recall repairs completed by a BMW dealer during recall 12 83 24RC (Transport Canada recall no. 2024-444) may not be effective. As a result, certain vehicles require a second repair. 

On certain vehicles, if you try to start the engine repeatedly, the starter could overheat. If this happens, and nearby components contact the starter, it could cause a fire. 

Safety Risk: 
A fire can create the risk of injury. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the engine starter.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a motor in the integrated brake control module could fail and cause reduced power brake assist and a loss of rear hydraulic brakes. As a result, there may be reduced braking, and the antilock braking system (ABS) and dynamic stability control (DSC) may not work. 

Safety Risk: 
Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, antilock brake and stability control systems that don't work could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
The company will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the integrated brake system.

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 certain vehicles, a problem with the integrated brake system could cause reduced power brake assist. As a result, there may be reduced braking and the antilock braking system (ABS) and dynamic stability control (DSC) may not work.
