## What is wrong

BMW of North America, LLC \(BMW\) is recalling certain 2005\-2008 745i, 745Li, 750i, 750Li, 760i, 760Li, and B7 Alpina vehicles equipped with both the Comfort Access and Soft Close Automatic options.   In these vehicles, the doors may appear to be closed and latched, but, in fact, may inadvertently open.


## What can happen

The door may unexpectedly open due to road or driving conditions or occupant contact with the door. The sudden opening may result in occupant ejection or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.


## The remedy

BMW will notify owners, and dealers will update the door latch system, free of charge.  The recall began February 8, 2018.  Owners may contact BMW at 1\-800\-525\-7417 or email BMW at CustomerRelations@bmwusa.com.


## 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.
