    If the driver relies on only the rearview camera image, the missing or reduced rearview image view can increase the risk of a crash or injury.

    BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the rearview camera software and update it if necessary, free of charge. The recall began April 16, 2021. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
