An official Health Canada notice concerns MINI - Bmw. Issue: On certain vehicles, a problem in the high-voltage system could cause a short circuit. If this happens, there could be a loss of power to the wheels and/or the high-voltage battery could overheat. Note: This problem would cause a warning message to display on the instrument panel. This recall only affects the 3-door model. This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2024-253. Safety Risk: A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.
