BMW owners may continue to drive their cars while a software update is being developed to address the issue, according to the company. Dealerships will deliver the update free of charge, and letters will be sent to affected owners’ cars next month advising them to bring their vehicles in for a repair.
This is the second recall for BMW’s new electric vehicle series in less than a year. The carmaker recalled a “limited number” of 2022 i4 cars and iX SUVs last summer owing to the potential of battery fires.
