Description of the problem	There is a known issue with this model bmw, the elv control /steering warning lock is faulty. Bmw issued a tsb to dealers that this is an issue and should only be fixed if a customer brings in the vehicle. The issue from what i understand is a software issue and can only be fixed at a dealer. A recall should be issued, if the control cannot be unlocked the car cannot start. Since bmw has recognized the issue with a tsb, i am unsure as to why a recall as not been issued. This issue is strictly related to the bmw computer system and the owners can do nothing to prevent this failure.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
