2017 BMW X1- Visalia, CA
Warning message: "Secure vehicle with parking brake when stationary". Extremely common issue with various BMW's including Mini Cooper vehicles. Error code reads "420106". Vehicle's computer can't read/tell if parking brake is engaged or not while parked. This is a safety hazard that is often quoted as several thousand dollars in repair costs by BMW dealers. A faulty gear box is at play and should be recalled by BMW.

Warning message on dash saying 'Secure Vehicle Against Rolling' when ignition is turned off, and immediately on entering vehicle. The dealer states that the shift lock solenoid needs replacing, and is a common issue that can make it impossible to shift gears If the vehicle rolls while in park, this could be a saftey risk for anyone nearby. Confirmed by dealer. Not looked at by anyone else. Warning as described above

2017 BMW X1- Ellicott City, MD
A caution light appears and an error message "Secure vehicle against rolling. Secure vehicle with the parking brake when stopped." Come to find out there have been several complaints about 2017 BMW X1 having this same problem, error message caused by a faulty spring in the Shifter panel. Seems to me that this should be put on a Recall list as soon as possible as this could cause a safety issue if in fact the system malfunctions and causes the car to roll or shift into drive when stopped. This error message just started about a week ago. BMW dealership has checked the car and confirmed the issue is a faulty spring and that the whole Shifter needs to be replaced. Pulled codes, received code 420106 Shiftlock Solenoid Selector Lever Wrongly Not Locked in P. Forums all over the internet with hundreds of the same exact issue. Commonplace and should be recalled.

2017 BMW X1- CHARLOTTE, NC
I had my car in for regular Oil Change Service and was told I needed front brakes and rotors. I approved the stated repairs. When I started my car and proceeded to drive off the lot a caution light appeared and an error message "Secure vehicle against rolling. Secure vehicle with the parking brake when stopped. Consult service center. I text a picture of the message to the service advisor and he stated "this is a known issue with the BMW X1 - "gear selector is intermittently faulty." I goggled website and seen that this is a known and common defect that BMW is aware of and has not had a recall or rectified the flaw of a the very expensive repair of $3500-$4000. https://api.mykaarma.com/video-walkaround/details?inspection_uuid=633c4b329e372707d2413d1c&fileType=image_and_video

2017 BMW X1- Manvel , TX
When placed in park , vehicle reads “secure vehicle against rolling “ and “ Secure vehicle with parking brake when stopped. Consult service center.” Upon research , this seems to be a common issue amongst this vehicle make and specific model that should be addressed. A parking brake should not be a requirement to ensure that a vehicle does not roll away into pedestrians , establishments , etc. when parked. No warning signs were provided prior to the alerts.

2017 BMW X1- Portsmouth, NH
I am getting a “secure vehicle from rolling” warning. Online many people report this is a problem with a gear shift ring. Is this being looked at as a recall?
