## What is wrong

BMW of North America, LLC \(BMW\) is recalling certain 2022\-2023 iX xDrive40, iX XDrive50, and iX M60 vehicles.  The air bag malfunction indicator light and display message may not illuminate in the event of a problem with the air bag control or pedestrian protection systems, due to incorrect software.
