What it covers

A service bulletin tells BMW technicians how to diagnose or fix a known issue. It is not a recall: a repair under a bulletin is normally paid by the owner unless the car is still under warranty or a warranty extension applies.

A Delivery Stop has been issued on certain 2014 model year F01, F02 and F15 vehicles produced from June 2013 to mid October 2013. A fault in the parking brake (EMF) switch could cause a Check Control message (Parking Brake Failure) to display.
