De aceasta data a venit randul modelelor de volum Seria 1, Seria 3 si modelul de nisa Z4.
De vina pentru acest recall masiv este un cablu al sistemului de alimentare electrica a masinii care poate duce la oprirea completa a motorului.
Conform celor de la NHTSA cablul cu probleme poate duce la oprirea motorului din mers moment cand masina poate sa fie implicata intr-un accident.
Conform jurnalistilor de la Detroit News exista momentan doar un caz cand o masina a fost implicata intr-o mica coliziune.
Rechemarea masiva incepe incepand cu luna martie a anului curent cand BMW introduce in service peste 500.000 de masini care primesc o reparatie gratuita.

SUMMARY
BMW is recalling certain model year 2008-2012 1-Series coupes and convertibles manufactured December 2007 through July 2011; and 2007-2011 3-Series coupes and convertibles manufactured March 2007 through July 2011; 2007-2011 3-Series sedans manufactured March 2007 through October 2011; 2007-2011 3-Series sports wagons manufactured March 2007 through June 2011; and 2009-2011 Z4 vehicles manufactured March 2009 through June 2011. The connector for the positive battery cable connector and the corresponding terminal on the fuse box may degrade over time. Over time, the high current flow and heat from electrical resistance may lead to a breakage of the connection, and a loss of electrical power to the vehicle.
