3 recalls across 4 model years
The BMW M550i has 3 recalls covering 2018-2021 model years, all involving the rearview camera system failing to display a full or any image while backing up, which raises the risk of a crash.
The 2020-2021 model years are affected by two related camera issues: in some vehicles the rearview image can be partially obscured, and in others the camera image can go missing entirely while reversing. Both conditions mean the driver may not see pedestrians, cyclists, or obstacles behind the vehicle when relying on the camera display. The 2018-2020 model years share a similar defect where the backup camera can fail to show any image at all, again reducing rear visibility while reversing.
