UK recall page disappeared, I think BMW shut down the API, and this tool it doesn’t work either (https://bmw-recall-tool.netlify.app/), anywhere else to check by VIN?

This thread was created based on initial information provided to dealers and in a matter of days, BMW will provide more information to the dealer which will eventually flow down to the customers. |

The production began on July 14 for my 2022 M4C and I can't seem to find a recall in the search results. Am I good cuz production date = manufacture start date?

The guy at BMW in Australia who I ordered my car with, said that my $10,000 deposit isn't refundable because it's a factory ordered car. My car is built, on a boat, and it doesn't seem to be affected by this recall, but I just wanted to put this information out there for all to see. If I wanted to cancel my delivery, I would have definitely gone straight to a lawyer over this non refundable deposit issue. I'm sure we have better consumer protection in Australia than this.

For reference, I had a similar situation happen to me with my Type R. LPFP recall X affected vehicles. Mine wasn't named, I'm good. Well, 800 miles later, my car is on a tow truck and the LPFP was replaced. I'd also be curious to see if this is affecting the M4s. Most people I've seen affected, purchased M3s.

Interesting that the recall isn't searchable by VIN anymore. BMW must've gotten wind of the leak and wants to get out in front of it before anymore hysteria ensues.
Otherwise, very odd coincidence. |

I'm sure they have staff that their sole job is to peruse the forums. I know there are other companies that do this, and not just for cars.

and yet...it says that there's no recall. and if thats the case...its likely not ALL of the cars that were built during that time will have suspect bearing shells. |

I can't believe the acceptance of mediocrity and lack of conformance quality by a large portion of you. This is why the world is the way it is today...No one is allowed to be upset, otherwise you're a 'Karen' - well maybe I'm old school but fuck that!
No big deal! $100k car that you've waited months for now has a potentially bad engine, no word or communication from BMW with the exception of taking down the site that provided the intel which started this thread to begin with, almost a week ago. I was ready to order one of these loads a week ago. I find this troubling and less than confidence inspiring and I doubt that this is an isolated issue that affects a small portion of cars because I'm a cynic and realist and have watched these types of issues occur with almost every generation of M. I really want one of these cars and feel they are the best value for the money, I empathize with everyone affected from the sidelines...but some of you need to grow some balls and get loud before you get nothing. Be pushovers with your significant others, not with your hundred thousand dollar automobiles. |

I am one of the ones who appears to be affected, but there's literally no info out yet. There's no acceptance of anything. Let's see what the issue is, what the notification is, what the fix is, and what they intend on doing to make it right before we blow a gasket. I'm typically a hot head and over reactor, but we just need to chill for the minute. |

1- there is no official recall yet. 2- it seems like a very small amount of cars are affected those are the only facts so far. Everything is else is speculation. So what exactly are you wanting us to get loud about? yell at the SA who has nothing to do with this? or yell at the salesman? write an angry email to the GM? the proper way to do handle this is to wait and see what will need to be done and how it will be done. Will this require an engine replacement? Will it take a few months to resolve? will i have a comparable loaner to drive? once you have all the facts laid out in front of you, then you can figure out the course of action. But yelling and screaming like a crazy person from the get go will get you nowhere. I'm a business owner and deal with people. Anyone who comes at me yelling and screaming will get their ass booted out the door. Those that come at me calmly and reasonably will get the best outcome. so relax
