Dec. 3, 2019—BMW has extended its diesel car recall, according to Motoring Research. The recall campaign had extended to 1.6 million cars around Oct. 2018, with affected cars in Europe and Asia.

In some diesel cars, glycol leakage from the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler can occur. In combination with soot deposits and high temperatures, this might result in smouldering particles.

The recall has now been expanded by 232,000 vehicles worldwide.
