Defect description

BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020 X7 xDrive40i and X7 xDrive50i vehicles. The rear reflex reflectors may not reflect an adequate amount of light.

Safety risk

An inadequate amount of reflected light will decrease the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
