BMW is recalling 1.3 million cars worldwide, including over 1000 cars in New Zealand, due to potential battery problems that could lead to a fire.
The recalled vehicles include the 5- and 6-series cars from the 2003 to 2010 model years.
BMW says that in rare cases a battery cable covering in the trunk was incorrectly installed which could prevent the car from starting and in extreme cases lead to a fire.
BMW is unaware of any accidents or injuries caused by the defect, but that it will be notifying owners by letter and the repair should take approximately 30 minutes.
