Issue
On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the external sound generator to not work properly. Under certain conditions, the vehicle may not produce enough sound to be detected by a pedestrian or cyclist. New Canadian regulations require electric vehicles to make a minimum sound level when operating at low speeds.
Safety risk
An external sound generator that doesn't work could create an increased risk of injury for pedestrians and cyclists.
Corrective actions
BMW will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the external artificial sound generator software.
