Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
Owner complaints about the 2024 BMW i4 top in one area — the power train, 3 of 25 reports (12%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 8 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the power train pattern above.
