BMW bulletin B652924

BMW filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Oct 19, 2024, about the electrical system. It names 8 model years (2021–2025). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

What the bulletin says

Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communication

During a parking maneuver with activated Park Distance Control (PDC), intermittently the parking instructions displayed in the Central Information Display (CID) are shown in German. The text in the instructions read: "Mit dem Parken beginnen" or “Einparken Starten� (start parking).

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5; the full text comes from the manufacturer or a dealer. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. Quote it at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is BMW B652924 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 B652924 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.

Which vehicles does B652924 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years: 2025 BMW X1, 2024 BMW X1, 2023 BMW X1, 2025 BMW X2, 2024 BMW X2, 2023 BMW X2 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
