Autonomous steering and braking in certain BMW cars could stop working because of a loose wire.
An autonomous driving technology fault has triggered a recall notice for hundreds of BMW cars in Australia.
The 452 affected vehicles are stamped Model Years 2022-2023. 520i, 740i, i5 and i7 variants are impacted.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the steering wheel earth wire may become loose,” the recall notice says.
“If this occurs, the driving assist functions such as hands-off the steering wheel warning or emergency stop may not activate as intended.
“If the safety features do not activate as intended, it could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
“Owners should immediately contact their preferred authorised BMW dealer or BMW Australia to have the vehicle’s steering wheel earth wire checked and if required rectified free of charge.
