BMW 7 Series, Ix: High Voltage
Affects BMW 7 Series, Ix · 2024 — about 7 vehicles.
The hazard
Issue: On a small number of vehicles, the high-voltage battery may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the high-voltage battery cell modules could fail and cause the high-voltage system to shut down. If this happens, there could be a loss of power to the wheels and/or the high-voltage battery could overheat. Safety Risk: A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. A battery that overheats can create a fire risk, even while the vehicle is parked and turned off. Corrective Actions: BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the affected high-voltage battery cell modules.
