The heater for the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve may short circuit.
An electrical short can cause the PCV valve heater to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire while driving or, soon after driving when parked.
This recall supersedes and expands previous NHTSA recalls 17V-683 and 19V-273. Dealers will install an electrical wiring harness with fuse protection for the PCV Valve heater in potentially affected vehicles, free of charge. This recall supersedes and expands previous NHTSA recalls 17V-683 and 19V-273. Vehicles previously repaired under the prior recalls will need to come back for the new recall remedy. The remedy is currently being developed. Interim owner notification letters informing owners of the safety risk were mailed on April 1, 2022. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 22, 2022. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.

Engine and engine cooling, cooling system, fanAug 10, 2012
This recall involves aftermarket parts sold by Valeo. Valeo is recalling certain engine cooling fans, part numbers 696121, 696273, and 696275, used as service replacement parts for model year 2008-2011 BMW 1-Series, 2006-2011 BMW 3-Series, 2000-2009 BMW 5-Series, 2004-2005 BMW 6-Series, and 2006-2007 BMW 7-Series vehicles. A metal-oxide semiconductor may overheat due to insufficient screwing of the semiconductor on the aluminum heat sink. This primary failure could cause adjacent components on the fan assembly motor circuit board to overheat and short.
This condition could cause the fan motor to become inoperative, or cause the motor circuit board in the assembly to overheat, potentially leading to a fire in the engine compartment.
Valeo will notify owners and replace the fans free of charge. The safety recall began on August 22, 2012. This recall is being conducted by Valeo, not by BMW. For further information, owners may contact Valeo at 1-888-718-2536.

BMW RECALL DATED 11/12/2013, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000. RECALL UP TO 76,565 UNITS FOR FAILURES OF FRONT SEAT OCCUPANT PROTECTION MAT. AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. CONTACTED BMW AND WAS TOLD MY VIN DOES NOT FALL INTO BMW RANGE BUT I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE EXACT FAILURE SINCE YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AT 3 -5 MPH WITH NO ONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW 2007, CURRENTLY HAS 83,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. BMW HAS LIKELY NOT IDENTIFIED THE TRUE VIN RANGE OF VEHICLES IMPACTED BY DEFECTIVE OCCUPANCY MATS AND REFUSES TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT AND TOLD ME IT WAS "CUSTOMERS COST" BECAUSE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN DEC., 2006 AND THE RECALL ONLY WENT THROUGH CARS MANUFACTURED UP TILL SEPT. 30 2006 MANUFACTURE DATE. I THINK ASKED HER IF THEY PUT IN A NEW PART ON THE VEHICLES IN DECEMBER VS. SEPTEMBER OF 2006 AND SHE SAID SHE DIDN'T KNOW. IT WOULD SEEM LIKE A LOGICAL ITEM TO HAVE IN THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE HELP TOOLS INSTEAD OF REFUSING TO FIX A CRITICAL SAFETY DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE. I SAID THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM POSTING IT ON THE INTERNET AND BMW SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT THEY MANUFACTURED WHICH SHE REALLY DIDN'T CARE, I GUESS SHE DOESN'T CARE IF MY AIR BAG DEPLOYS OR NOT. I SAID TO HER YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER CLASS ACTION SUIT AFTER A FEW PEOPLE DIE WHICH SHE DIDN'T REALLY CARE.

TAKATA RECALL THE MINNETONKA, MINNESOTA BMW DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME ON APRIL 4 2016 THAT DUE TO THE RECALL ON TAKATA'S PSDI-5 DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATORS IMPACTING MY VEHICLE, THERE WAS A 'SALES HOLD' ON MY VEHICLE. THIS MEANS THAT THE BMW DEALERSHIP WILL NOT OR CANNOT SELL THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER CONSUMER UNTIL THE DEFECT IS REMEDIED. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THE APPROXIMATE EXPECTED TIME FOR PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WOULD BE 12 MONTHS. WHEN I CONTACTED BMW CORPORATE ON APRIL 6 2016, THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR AROUND 12 MONTHS. FURTHERMORE, BMW CORPORATE IS NOT OFFERING IMPACTED VEHICLE OWNERS COMPENSATION FOR THE DRASTIC REDUCTION IN VEHICLE VALUE RELATED TO THE SALES HOLD AND THE EXTENDED TIME TO REMEDY THE DEFECT. THE EXCESSIVE REMEDY TIME FOR THIS DEFECT IS UNACCEPTABLE IN THE ABSENCE OF COMPENSATION FOR THE SEVERE DETERIORATION IN VEHICLE VALUE AS I INTEND TO SELL MY VEHICLE IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS.

RECALL COST OVER $1000.00 TO REPAIR FOR A AIRBAG SAFETY ISSUE. SEEMS TO EXTREMELY COMMON IN BMW'S. TOOK CAR TO BMW DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THE ISSUE WITH THE CAR.

FOR TWO YEARS MY SEATBELT SENSOR PAD IN THE PASSENGERS SIDE HAS BEEN BROKEN. THE COST IS $1400. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ONLY FOR THEM TO SAY THEY DON'T SEE A RECALL ON MY CAR. I LOOKED IT UP HERE AND THE SAME RESULT. I RESEARCH RECALLS ON THE 3 SERIES 328XI ON THE INTERNET AND I SEE A SEAT SENSOR PAD RECALL ON SOME CARS. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS IF IT'S THE SAME SENSOR PAD AND/OR SAME MALFUNCTION. WHY IS IT ONLY A FRACTION OF THE MODELS? ALSO IT'S UNFAIR FOR YOU GUYS TO MAKE MISTAKE WITH THIS INFORMATION. BY THE TIME YOU HAVE CORRECTED THE ISSUE I WILL HAVE DIED OR PAID FOR EVERY DEFECT OUT OF MY OWN POCKETS. REMEMBER BMW IS A BUSINESS I AM NOT. THE NEW ISSUES IS SOMETHING THAT I HAVE NEVER HAD HAPPEN IN 20 YEARS OF DRIVING. I HIT AN AVERAGE SIZE POTHOLE AND MY SUSPENSION LOCKED-UP THEN LATER SOMETHING SNAPPED. IT WAS THE REAR WHEEL DRIVERS SIDE. ITS STILL IN THE SHOP BUT SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THE SAFETY OF ALL THE VEHICLES AND ISSUE FREE REPAIR OR REFUND, ASAP. ALSO AN ISSUE WITH THE FAN BUT I A M RUNNING OUT OF CHARACTERS. TO ME IT SEEMS LIKE MOST OF THE ISSUE THAT YOU TRY TO ISOLATE BY MODEL ARE ACTUAL ISSUES ACROSS ALL MODELS AND WE NEED A SOLUTION. BETTER FIX THE ISSUE NOW OR LATER HAVE SOMEONE'S WHEEL COME OFF ON THE HIGHWAY. OR WHAT IF THE AIR BAG JUST NEVER RELEASE? ITS YOUR FAULT AND BMW. YOU PEOPLE SIT ON THIS INFORMATION FOR YEARS. THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO COME TO MY HOUSE AND FIX THIS [XXX]!!!! OR WRITE ME A CHECK!!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
