Over 26,000 BMW cars recalled

Over 26,000 BMW cars have been recalled. (File)

26,212 BMW X3, X3M and Alpina XD3 (G01, F97) models with a year range of 2017 to 2024 have been recalled.

The attachment for the interior cargo rail may become damaged in the event of an extreme rear impact. This could result in the interior cargo rail detaching from the vehicle.

If the interior cargo rail detaches from the vehicle, it can increase the risk of serious injury to vehicle passengers.

Owners of registered affected vehicles will be contacted in writing by BMW to schedule an appointment to have the recall completed. Vehicle owners can also check for outstanding recalls and select their preferred authorised BMW dealer at www.recall.bmw.com.au. The rear cargo rail attachment bolts will be replaced with an upgraded version, free of charge.
