The pillars may not be strong enough to protect occupants in a crash

BMW is recalling 3,312 X1 models because the B-pillars may not be strong enough to protect passengers in a crash.
The recall is for certain 2025 X1 xDrive28i and X1 M35i vehicles. The left and right-side B-Pillar reinforcement plates may have been manufactured with insufficient structural strength.
Remedy
The remedy is currently under development. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 27, 2024. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
