BMW service campaign B111024
BMW filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Dec 2, 2024, received Dec 31, 2024, about the engine. It names 6 model years (2023–2024). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
