Munich: BMW is recalling its new flagship 7-series luxury limousine due to a potential air bag deployment issue, the company said yesterday.
Air bags in 26,000 cars produced before December 11 last year may have a defective air bag control module and there have been no known cases of faulty deployments.
“It is purely a precautionary measure,” a BMW spokesman said, adding that so far 47,000 vehicles of its new 7-series have been produced.
The supplier of the affected air bag parts to BMW was Continental AG.
