BMW has issued a recall that will require immediate attention from drivers, Kelley Blue Book reports.
Though the recall affects only 201 vehicles, they are prone to loose steering components that could potentially lead to loss of control and increase the risk of crash. Vehicles included in the recall include 2024 model year 2 Series, 3 Series, X3, and X4 cars.
According to BMW, steering gears not produced to specifications by the supplier can lead to internal bolts becoming loose. If the servo unit and the housing rack connections become loose, this can lead to a potential loss of control. Signs of the problem include unusual noises or vibrations.
No injuries or accidents related to the problem have been reported to BMW. Owners of recalled vehicles will receive mailed notice from BMW in early January, and dealers will replace the entire steering gear to remedy the issue.
