The 2025 BMW 740i has 2 recalls, both centered on a brake system malfunction that can reduce braking power, extend stopping distances, and disable the anti-lock braking and stability control systems.
When the integrated brake system malfunctions, the driver loses the power assist that makes the brake pedal effective, meaning the car takes longer to stop than expected. At the same time, the anti-lock braking and stability control systems can stop functioning, which removes the vehicle's ability to prevent wheel lockup during hard braking and to help maintain directional control on slippery or uneven surfaces.
