## What is wrong

BMW of North America, LLC \(BMW\) is recalling certain 2023 X7 xDrive40i, and X7 M60i vehicles.  In certain vehicle operating conditions, only one of the two front parking lights may remain illuminated.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."


## What can happen

A loss of illumination from one of the parking lights can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will reprogram the electronic control unit for the front parking lights, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed November 18, 2022.  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.nhtsa.gov.
