Thousands of BMWs Affected by Software Error

BMW in the United States has issued a statement saying that more than 14,000 cars have been affected by a bug affecting the battery management unit. According to those responsible for the German brand on North American soil, the vehicles affected include the iX, i4 and i7 models produced between October 14, 2021 and October 28, 2022.

In an official statement, BMW also said: "During internal quality checks, BMW has identified that incorrect diagnostics in the vehicle's battery management unit may occur from time to time. In very rare cases, this can lead to an unplanned interruption of the vehicle's battery charging or a deactivation of the high-voltage system. Software updates already available correct these occasional misdiagnoses."

Although this software error has also been identified in Portugal, it poses no danger to drivers.
