Consumer Description

This vehicle is affected by NHTSA Recall 25V644 (starter motor – fire risk). The recall remedy has been listed as “Remedy Not Available” since September 25, 2025, and remains unavailable more than two months later. BMW did not notify me about this safety recall. I only discovered it after a third-party platform automatically deactivated the vehicle due to the open recall. In addition, this vehicle has recently developed starting issues — it now struggles to start and requires multiple attempts. This may indicate that the defective starter component described in the recall is already failing. Combined with the stated fire risk, this creates a serious daily safety concern. BMW advises owners to park outside and away from structures, but provides no remedy, no timeline, and no assistance. Multiple inquiries to BMW Recall Support were answered with the same message: there is no known timeframe for parts or repair. I am filing this complaint because the manufacturer has not provided a remedy, has not communicated adequately, and the defect appears to be progressing in a way that increases the risk described by NHTSA. I respectfully request that NHTSA review the extended delay, lack of remedy, lack of notification, and the presence of active symptoms related to this safety defect
