Details

On certain 528IA vehicles, the transmission gear position switch sealing material may in time develop leaks and allow water ingress.

This could eventually result in incorrect indication of the transmission gear position which could also cause the vehicle not to start or allow it to start in a drive gear, such as "DRIVE" or "REVERSE".

Correction: Transmission gear position switch will be replaced with an improved version.
