BMW has issued a recall for all 2009 BMW X5 and X6 vehicles, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The vehicles are being recalled because the rear brake discs may not have been manufactured according to correct specifications. This could lead to reduced braking performance in the rear wheels, significantly increasing stopping distance and increasing the potential for a crash.

BMW hasn’t provided NHTSA with its remedy or notification schedule for the repair, but owners may contact BMW at 800-831-1117. They may also contact the NHTSA vehicle safety hotline at 888-327-4236.
