A failure of the brake vacuum pump results in a reduction in braking power that could increase the risk of a crash. |
| Corrective action |
BMW will notify owners, and dealers will modify the vehicles to prevent insufficient vacuum pump lubrication, free of charge. The safety recall began on January 31, 2014. Owners may contact BMW customer relations at 1-800-525-7417 or email BMW at [email protected]. |
