>BMW is launching a voluntary safety
recall covering certain 2025–2026
BMW X3 models after identifying a
software weakness in the steering
system that, in rare cases, can lead to
unintended steering wheel movement while the vehicle is stationary.
> According to BMW, the problem is tied to the steering system software, which “may not be sufficiently robust.” The concern involves the steering torque sensor, which has two channels. If one of those channels malfunctions while the vehicle is at a standstill—either during startup, or while in drive mode but not moving—the software diagnostics may not detect the condition correctly.
Seems they use data from sensors before the init is completed.
