BMW of North America is recalling 3 of its 2026 X4 and X6 vehicles because the windshield may not have been sealed correctly during production. This defect can allow water to leak into the power distribution box or the electronic control unit. To fix this, dealers will inspect the seal, reseal the windshield as needed, and replace the vehicle control unit and wiring at no cost to owners.
Water intrusion into electrical components can cause the headlights or door closing functions to fail, which increases the risk of a crash. There is also a risk of an electrical short circuit, which could cause a vehicle fire whether the car is being driven or is parked.
You have 2 options:
Windshield inspection and resealing
Electrical component replacement
