BMW Recall: A reduced protective effect of the knee airbag

BMW is recalling 2,184 X5, X5M, X6, X6M, X7 and X7M built in 2023 to workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is a faulty gas generator which, in the event of accidental activation, leads to a reduced protective effect of the knee airbag, increasing the risk of injury.

On the affected vehicles, the driver and/or passenger side knee airbag is replaced. The KBA monitors the measure under the reference number “012984” and the internal manufacturer code is “0072510200“.

What should an owner do if there's a recall?

Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.

If you wish to know more about the eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accident damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), in that case, we suggest going to this page.
