In February,2024[12th]. BMW FILED A RECALL NOTICE ABOUT A DEFECTIVE PART IN THE BRAKING SYSTEMS OF 2023,2024 models 5series, 7 series, x1,x5,x6,x7 and Xm. My vehicle was made in mid March and delivered early April. Supposedly according to my source , BMW received replacement parts from the vendor and production continued. I’m not sure if it ever stopped. The problem is BMW NEVER TESTED THESE NEW PARTS TO SEE IF THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. THIS IS CLEARLY NEGLIGENCE ON THEIR PART. THE DEGREE THE LAWYERS CAN DETERMINE. NOW AROUND August12, BMW ISSUED A STOP SALE ON ALL THESE CARS INCLUDING SOME 2025 MODELS. ONLY BECAUSE I READ A USER BLOG ON LINE ABOUT THIS AND CHECKED MY VIN WAS I AWARE IT AFFECTED MY CAR. NO NOTICE FROM BMW. This was not a don’t drive notice. The effect on owners is they can’t trade or sell their cars. There does not seem to be a requirement that BMW file a STOP SALE order with the federal safety agency. I DON’T BELIEVE THEY FILED A SUBSEQUENT NOTICE TO THE FEBRUARY FILING. Every day there are recall notices. Most are narrow in scope but this will involve umpteen thousands of cars. There is no end date because they don’t know when a new part will be available. Once available it could be many months before owners are able to have the problem part replaced. It takes 2+ hours a car. The dealers are already overwhelmed because of limited space and mechanics. If these companies don’t get fined for this type of behavior, it will not stop. I am talking millions in fines. The FAA does it. More people drive than fly yet it seems the Federal Transportation Department does not have or doesn’t want to exercise this option. Just look at what has been going on for over 15 years with Takata airbags which could be fatal if opened. Just today 577,000 cars from Ford and Mazda were issued a DO NOT DRIVE notice on the news. Granted they were for older models but people who need transportation will still drive. Why hasn’t the government over the past 15+ years stopped the buying of them.

While driving on a highway, several lights illuminated on my dashboard instrument cluster, including the ABS light, a red BRAKE light, a yellow PARK light, and the dynamic stability control light. The message center reported to "drive carefully" however none of this appeared urgent. I decided I should maybe test my breaks as I was curious what the problem was. I then proceeded to gently tap my brakes to see what all of this meant, and to my horror, my brake pedal went completely to the ground with no brakes initiated. Thankfully, I was able to move over onto the shoulder and coast to a stop and place my car in Park. The emergency brake would not initiate. This could have ended terribly awful.
