## What is wrong

BMW of North America LLC \(BMW\) is recalling certain model year 2014 BMW 328i xDrive Sports Wagon, 2012\-2014 BMW 320i Sedan, 328i Sedan, 320i xDrive Sedan, 328i xDrive Sedan, 2012\-2013 BMW 528i Sedan, 528i xDrive Sedan, 2013\-2014 BMW X1 sDrive28i, X1 xDrive28i Sports Activity Vehicle, 2013\-2014 BMW X3 xDrive28i Sports Activity Vehicle, 2012\-2014 BMW Z4 sDrive28i Roadster, and 2014 BMW 428i Coupe, and 428i xDrive Coupe.  Due to insufficient lubrication, the vacuum pump that supplies brake power assistance may fail.  Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 13V\-454.


## What can happen

A failure of the brake vacuum pump results in a reduction in braking power that could increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

BMW will notify owners, and dealers will install a locking ring in the camshaft to retain the camshaft seal disk in the proper location, free of charge.  The recall began on December 2, 2014.  Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1\-800\-525\-7417.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
