In certain driving conditions, such as fast lane changes at high speed, the vehicle could experience an 'over-steer' behavior affecting vehicle handling and control, which could increase the risk of a crash.
BMW is recalling 55 MY 2008 X5 sport utility vehicles for problems with the rear axle stabilizer (anti-sway bar). These vehicles were equipped with a sports-suspension stabilizer rather than a standard suspension stabilizer on the rear axle.
Dealers will replace the rear axle stabilizer. The recall began on May 14, 2008. Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-831-1117 or via E-mail to customerrelations@bmwusa.com.
