MY2020 M2C Recall......1 day before pick-up

Everything has been carefully planned out for this weekend and next week and got a message from my Sales Rep saying there is a STOP Sale recall got put in late last night on May.2nd....

No words at this point...hope BMW fixes whatever needs to be fixed. I doubt it is a major issue (most likely just a bad batch of parts or something..)

Many of us had a recall so far. One thing was the tyre pressure sticker and the other thing was a problem within the DME.

But knee airbag seems new to me. So already another one... 🤬

No joke about the sticker. It had some wrong info for winter tyres on it. They just put a new one over the old one. White car is the wrong old one, black is my new one.

DME had wrong calculation of backpressure in the exhaust.

Just want to keep everyone posted. Here is the latest from my CA "A solution has been identified but replacement part number is not yet in the system. Once parts are available, it would be a on-site repair. Next update timing would be Thursday (5/9). No further detailed information about the recall is disclosed. More than 100,000 vehicles are affected."

Thanks for the update. I just found out today that my car is also affected. It's sitting at the port right now waiting to be shipped to the dealer so looks like I have some more waiting to do. Dang it...

This is from my CA. My car is still in production.


BMW has issued a voluntary recall for several types of cars...all 2 series, all 330xi's, all 4 series, the new Z4, M4's and M2's. This is due to a supplier issue on the driver and passenger side airbags. Because of a supplier issue in production, the driver and passenger side airbags could become damaged during deployment.

There are approximately 11,700 vehicles affected by this. It affects cars from 2018, '19 and '20.

Currently your car does not show being affected by this recall, however, it has not advanced along the production process. I can see that is was to be built on 4/29, but the car is still in the Assembly finish/quality check phase.

Thanks for the update. Was picking up my car, amp was not working, no sound from car interior at all. Left it over the weekend to allow the part to arrive. The day i was going to pick it up, recall issued. The amp killed my dreams currently because I would have the car now and of course get the recall fixed during the first 1500 mile service!!!!! Cant wait.....in hurry up and wait mode myself!!

Hmm. I have been reading on the forums saying that the AMP issue was caused by poor ventilation of the module in the trunk and MY20 supposedly has a revised design that fixed the problem...so ur MY20's AMP was not working even before the car leaves the dealer lot? Probably good to contact my dealer and have them check on it 😂

Yes, they replaced the amp and that was the reason I was not able to take it the first time I went to pick up the car. Literally, I was there the day it was delivered from the port, 4 miles on the car, amp goes out. As I driving off the lot and my phone would not connect, no sound would come from the speakers at all. The Sales Adviser came out and and I showed him the issue, they brought it back in and it was almost 7pm at that time. Therefore I had to leave it overnight to determine the issue. On the next day Friday, they had to order the amp, would not arrive until Monday, 5/6. Once arrived and installed, I'm going to pick it up, and the recall comes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The clutch is very good, that's all I can tell you how easily it transitioned from Reverse to First.

MY2020 M2C Recall......1 day before pick-up

Oh man...this is just crazy...no idea why a not so complex AMP is having so many issues...any update on the recall from your dealer? BMW is supposed to announce something today I think.

That's terrible.....I still can't believe BMW corporate is this messed up...and it is taking them over a week to figure out what the heck is going on and come up with resolutions...My GSM is going to be calling BMW NA tomorrow to get the latest. So far, it is still showing Stop Sell, Recall B651119, with no remedy status... I bet BMW has no clue on what is wrong with the airbags and what caused the failure that they found at the supplier or their assembly plant...

I'm in the same boat. One day before my car gets off the ship my dealer springs the no-sell / knee airbag recall on me. Besides 2018-2020 M2s it's also affecting ALL 2018-2020 2-series, 2019 330i xDr, all 2020 M4s and 4-series, and the 2020 Z4. A total of 11,764 cars in the US. According to the service manager there's been no update from BMW corporate. That's pretty amazing considering how many new vehicles are affected, and has me worried that this might be a major (i.e. long time waiting on parts) issue.

The freaking car is just sitting there on the lot looking awesome...
