BMW service campaign · NHTSA ID 11025830 · Dec 2025 · also written SI B12 14 25, B121425
What it covers
A service campaign is a fix BMW performs free on affected cars. Ask a BMW center whether it is open on your VIN.
In certain driving situations there can be a loss of traction or wheel slip followed by a throttle or torque requirement that can potentially damage the axle shafts. Damage of the drive shaft can cause it to break.
