How to check if your BMW 528I has a recall

A recall covers specific build dates and vehicle identification numbers (VINs), not every BMW 528I on the road. To see whether yours is affected:

Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: MLIT (Japan), NHTSA (United States), MOLIT (South Korea).
Ask an authorised BMW dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.
