Another BMW Recall Reported

Less than a week after BMW, whose North American manufacturing headquarters are located in Greer, had to recall some 30,000 X5 SUV's, the auto giant confirmed another recall, NBC News reports.

BMW's newest recall affects some 570,000 vehicles in the 3-Series, sold during 2007 to 2011.  

The last recall affected the luxury brand's X5 model SUVs from the 2007 to 2010 model years, along with the 1-Series coupes and convertables from 2008 to 2011 and the Z4 Roadsters from 2009 to 2011. 

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration concluded that a fuse box terminal in those models could degrade over time, breaking the electrical connection with the battery, which could then cause a power outage in the vehicle. BMW confirmed one minor crash because of the problem. 

The last recall affected the luxury brand's X5 model SUVs from the 2007 to 2010 model years, and was necessitated by a brake problem. 

The automaker says repairs for both the battery cable problem and the brake issue will be handled for free, with notices going out to affected owners in the coming weeks.

Owners can contact BMW for more information on the recalls at 1-800-525-7417.
