BMW 550 owners have reported 1 problem related to brakes failed (under the service brakes category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While driving near home on a rainy day on 10/18/2012 when I applied my brakes at a road curve, the brakes did not respond and I hit a sidewalk, damaging the rear bumper on its right hand side (passenger's side). I searched the internet for brake failures on my 2006 BMW 550i and found a recall id #87954, related to a "complete loss of power assist braking, or unexpected reduction or loss in power braking assist. . . ". When I called BMW number showing in the recall notice, they told me my car VIN was not included in the factory recall. A total of potential units affected in the racall was 198,352, but my VIN was not included ! I'm requesting NHTSA to reveiw this case and extend this recall to additional VIN numbers, including mine to get power assist braking system repaired on my vehicle free of charge. Also, this should prevent crash accidents on this model car.
