Recall 2021078 [Canada]: Visual system
Issue: on certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to appear correctly in the central display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear. Safety risk: a rearview camera image that does not display correctly could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: bmw will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the rearview camera software, if necessary.
Recall 2021061 [Canada]: Brakes

If this happens, there would be a reduction in brake boost and the antilock brake system (abs) would turn off. This can cause an increase in brake pedal effort that is required to stop the vehicle. Safety risk: a sudden increase in brake pedal force and a loss of abs braking could lead to an increase in stopping distance. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: bmw will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer replace the integrated brake system (hydraulic unit and master cylinder).

Safety risk: a seat belt pretensioner or airbag system that does not work properly in a crash could increase the risk of injury.

Recall 2019480 [Canada]: Visual system
Issue: on certain vehicles, the rearview camera does not return to the default settings when it turns on. This could make the rearview image difficult to see if a driver had previously adjusted the camera display brightness at or near the lowest setting, and contrast at or near the highest setting. Canadian regulations require that the rearview display returns to the default view each time the camera is turned on. Safety risk: reduced rear visibility could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: the company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the software for the rearview camera. Drivers are recommended not to adjust the display brightness at or near the lowest setting, and contrast at or near the highest setting, until this recall is completed.
