Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights.

What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 10 model years this bulletin names have filed 267 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 169 of them name Service Brakes — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On 2/25/26, in rush hour traffic we were driving on a NJ highway. We happened to be in the left-most of 3 lanes with a concrete divider (no shoulder – there was about 3 ft between the concrete divider and the left side of the left lane). We were about 4 car lengths behind the next car when traffic was slowing for a red light.

The Integrated Brake system is not working properly. Received a recall notice in April 2024 and it is now 3 months later and it is still not fixed. Visited the BMW dealership and discussed the matter with them and they offered no information as to when it would be fixed. We just have to wait until they notify us.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is BMW B341025 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the B341025 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every BMW warranty extension on file lists the ones BMW has filed.
Which vehicles does B341025 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 10 model years: 2025 BMW 2 Series, 2025 BMW 5 Series, 2025 BMW 7 Series, 2025 BMW M, 2024 BMW X1, 2024 BMW X2 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
