A recall does not mean your car is affected. Check the market, build date and VIN with the manufacturer.
- Engine / equipment
- Outer tailgate panel: BMW XM (G09)
- Period mentioned
- Model year 2024 in the US (only the VINs in the recall)
- Symptoms
- The official record describes no early warning signs. The risk is that the panel comes off the tailgate.
- Possible cause described
- The tailgate panel was not bonded correctly to its mounting structure during manufacturing and may detach; a panel that falls onto the road can cause a crash. It is US recall 24V139 (267 model year 2024 XM); the remedy is to inspect the panel and replace it as necessary.
- Check for the garage
- Ask a BMW dealer, with the VIN, whether your XM has this recall or a European equivalent outstanding: they inspect the panel and replace it if needed, free of charge. If you see the tailgate panel moving or showing a gap, do not drive until it has been checked.
- Cost cited in the source
- No verified estimate; check whether the free recall remedy remains outstanding for the VIN.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
