High-voltage battery recalls (xDrive25e plug-in hybrid)
Manufacturer recallIn 2020 BMW recalled its plug-in hybrids, including the X1, built between 20 January and 18 September 2020: foreign particles in the battery cells could cause a short circuit and a fire (Fleet News). Fiches-auto reports another campaign for X1 cars built between 7 July 2021 and 14 February 2024 (cell modules not built to production specification, fire risk). Safety defect: check the VIN with BMW.
Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
