BMW is recalling more than 720,000 cars due to the risk of fire in parking lots.
A large-scale service campaign has been announced in the United States for cars manufactured in the years 2012-2018. The recall includes the BMW 2, 3, 4 and 5 series, as well as the X1, X3, X4 and X5 crossovers.
The problem can lead to a fire even when the engine is off. Until the fault is fixed, owners are advised to park away from buildings and other cars - the fire could spread to neighboring objects.
