BMW Canada is recalling 9,376 vehicles due to an issue with the braking system. Affected models include the 3 Series, 5 Series, X1, X3, and Z4 from 2012-2014.
A manufacturing defect could result in a loss of oil supply to the vacuum pump. If this were to occur, the vacuum pump could fail, causing a loss of power assist to the braking system. This could increase stopping distances, possibly resulting in a crash.
BMW dealers will install a camshaft seal disk locking ring to fix the problem.
