SITUATION
BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall (effective September 24, 2020) on a small number of Model Year 2020-2021 MINI Countryman (PHEV) vehicles that were produced between March 12, 2020 and September 15, 2020.
The high-voltage battery may not have been produced to specifications. When charging the battery, this could lead to a short-circuit and, in rare cases, a thermal event.
Please do not charge the vehicle’s high-voltage battery until further notice.
The Recall Notice and Q&A have been attached for further information.
CAUSE
On Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) models, the HV battery may not have been produced to specifications. When charging the battery to near its full state of charge, this could lead to a short-circuit; and in rare cases a thermal event.
CORRECTION
The vehicle will be inspected and, if necessary, HV module(s) will be replaced.
Customers must be informed of the issue and of the customer service measure (listed in the Procedure section) that must be carried out by the workshop appointment.
PROCEDURE
Important warning for working on the high-voltage systems on BMW Group vehicles:
Only properly trained personnel, who have passed all applicable technical training courses, should perform any maintenance or repairs on any Hybrid or Electric Vehicle. Work performed by unqualified persons may result in severe injury or damage to the vehicle. Additional information is found in Repair Instruction 61 00… Observe safety instructions when handling electric vehicles.
The customer is to be informed of the following:

Note:
If these instructions are followed, the customer may continue to use the vehicle until the workshop visit.
Important Note: Please do not start the repair until you see that the campaign is remedy available. Recall IDS tickets will be rejected if remedy is not available.
Carry out the following service measure:
- Connect the vehicle to the diagnosis and carry out a Vehicle Test.
- If a cell module is affected, ISTA sets the fault S 0795.
- Perform the associated test module in the test plan to determine the affected cell modules to bereplaced. (High Voltage Battery Unit – Cell Modules (ABL – DIT – AT6127_SPOXZM; available with the ISTA version 4.26.38; released Nov. 20, 2020)
- If cell modules are prompted for replacement, replace the corresponding cell modules. Follow theproper repair instructions for the specific vehicle; see REP 61 27 621 or REP 61 27 623.
- If a cell module exchange is not instructed, the vehicle is OK. -> No further measures required.
Note:
The diagnosis of the cell modules is only available with the ISTA version 4.26.38 (released Nov. 20, 2020).
Note: A TC case is NOT necessary to order the replacement HV battery cell modules as per this campaign.
