FRANKFURT (Reuters) – German car maker BMW <BMWG.DE> said on Friday it would recall 11,700 cars to fix their engine management software after it discovered that the wrong software had been installed on its luxury 5- and 7-Series models.
“The BMW Group found in internal tests that correctly developed software had been installed in error on unsuitable models,” the company said in a statement. “Upon this, the BMW Group immediately informed the responsible authorities.”
