The recall campaign to rectify the problem will begin on July 28th. A total of 1,559 BMW X5 crossover SUVs are affected by the defect, manufactured between January 30th, 2013 and June 29th, 2013.
The reason for this recall is that the taillights on these vehicles do not emit enough light in the dark, making it difficult for drivers to see behind them, thereby posing a potential safety risk to vehicles behind.
The company is currently actively notifying each affected customer to have their faulty taillights inspected and replaced completely free of charge.
Not long ago, BMW also ordered a recall for repairs of more than 86,000 X5 and X6 crossover SUVs here due to a faulty driveshaft.
