2011 MINI COOPER CLUBMAN Recall

Campaign:
11V299000 on 05/25/2011
Component:
Electrical system: instrument panel
Manufactured:
02/07/2011 - 05/10/2011
Affected:
75
Defect:
Bmw is recalling certain model year 2011 mini cooper clubman and cooper s clubman vehicles manufactured from february 8, 2011, through may 11, 2011, for failing to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicles safety standard no. 101, "controls and displays." these vehicles are equipped with a european specification tachometer that uses brake-system telltales/symbols that do not meet u.s. requirements.
Consequence:
In the event of an abs system problem, only the the outer circle of the symbol illuminates, not the abs letters. as such, the driver may be unaware that there is a problem with the abs, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
All affected vehicles have been repaired at dealerships. therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. owners may contact bmw 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.safercar.gov.
