Date: 2019-08-12. Systems: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEAT BELTS.
Defect: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020 BMW 745e xDrive vehicles. A software error in the electronic control unit (ECU) may disable the audible warning signal for an unbelted driver to fasten their seat belt. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
Consequence: Without an audible warning, the driver may forget to buckle the seat belt, increasing their risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: BMW will notify owners, and dealers will update the ECU software, free of charge. The recall began October 11, 2019. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
Do not drive: No. Park outside: No.
