The sixth generation BMW 5 Series was designed by Jacek Fröhlich with a more prominent upright split kidney grille and the absence of the "Bangle butt" rear-end styling of its E60 predecessor. Externally, the car is a more traditional BMWesque design; a far more sober effort after the highly controversial E60. Though the car has been described as to bland.
The F10 shares a platform with the BMW 7 Series (F01) and has been described as a downsized-7 Series in contrast to its E60 predecessor which was regarded as an upsized 3 Series. Improvements over the E60-generation 5-series include a front dual ball joint short-long arm suspension, and rear multilink suspension, making it more refined but heavier. While the E60 had an aluminum front chassis structure from firewall forward (which provided perfect balance but was expensive to repair), the F10 has returned to the conventional steel monocoque.
The car was updated in 2011 for the 2012 model year

DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST:VACUUM

Posted on: 2010-10-01
Description
Bmw is recalling certain model year 2004-2010 5-series, 6-series, and model year 2002-2008 7-series vehicles.  A check valve of the brake vacuum pump may leak a small amount of lubricating oil.  Over time this could result in contamination of the brake booster.

Consequence
Power assist braking performance could be adversely affected.  In extreme cases there could be a complete loss of power assist braking.  An unexpected reduction or loss in power braking assist may increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Bmw will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge.  The safety recall began on november 24, 2010.  Owners may contact bmw at 1-800-525-7417.

Notes
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov .

DEFECT #2 - FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM

Posted on: 2010-07-22
Description
Bmw is recalling certain 2010 and 2011 5-series and 5-series gran turismo passenger vehicles manufactured from january 12 through july 1, 2010.  The vehicle's fuel level sensor within the fuel tank can become wedged against the tank.

Consequence
If this occurs, the fuel gauge in the instrument cluster would display a larger amount of fuel than was actually in the tank.  As a result, if the tank became empty, the vehicle could stall increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Bmw will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge.  The safety recall began on october 18, 2010.  Owners may contact bmw at 1-800-525-7417.

Notes
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov .

DEFECT #3 - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BATTERY:CABLES

Posted on: 2012-03-26
Description
Bmw is recalling certain model year 2004-2010 5-series, model year 2004-2010 6-series, model year 2006-2010 m5, and model year 2007-2010 m6 vehicles.  The insulated bulkhead connector for the positive battery cable may have been incorrectly attached to the trunk floor panel, which can lead to a loosening of the bolt connection.  As it loosens, an increase in electrical resistance at this cable connection is possible and could cause the cable connection to overheat.

Consequence
Overheating could lead to a fire, even while the vehicle is not in use.  As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made.

Corrective Action
Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and secure the battery bolt cable connection as necessary, free of charge.  The safety recall began on april 30, 2012.  Owners may contact bmw customer relations and services at 1-800-525-7417.
