Consequence summary	Air in the brake system can lead to a loss of braking capability, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective action	Dealers will bleed the front brakes and install a damper weight in the brake fluid reservoir. This weight will dampen possible vibrations that can cause foaming of the brake fluid. The recall began on december 14, 2007. Owners may contact bmw at 1-800-831-1117.
