2011 BMW X3 recalled over power steering issues
The 2011 BMW X3 has only been on sale for a few months now, but it already faces a recall over a potentially serious problem. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a control module in the crossover’s electric power steering system may malfunction, resulting in a loss of power steering.
This recall only affects X3s built between April 27, 2011 and June 8, 2011 – 50 vehicles in total – and owners will be notified within the coming weeks. BMW dealers will repair the control module free of charge, ensuring that the X3′s steering never goes berserk while out on the road. Hit the jump for NHTSA’s official release.
