INCIDENT DESCRIPTION: Within minutes of picking up the vehicle post-repair and entering an active roadway, the vehicle suffered an immediate, un-warned, total loss of all electrical power. The engine stalled, all digital dashboard instrumentation went black, and power steering/braking assistance were compromised. The vehicle came to a complete stop in moving traffic. The total power failure prevented the activation of hazard lights, rendering the blacked-out vehicle invisible to surrounding traffic and nearly causing a high-speed rear-end collision. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer center. TECHNICAL BASIS FOR DEFECT/WORKMANSHIP FAILURE: Campaign 25V-636 requires replacing or manipulating vulnerable electrical relay and starter assembly points tied directly to the main 12V electrical infrastructure and power distribution system. A total, sudden in-motion electrical blackout strongly indicates an open-circuit failure, improper terminal torque specifications, or damage to the adjacent Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) network occurring during the recall execution. The dealer is attempting to claim a coincidental \"faulty battery\" caused the in-motion shutdown to avoid workmanship liability. However, a battery failure does not completely choke out a running engine already under alternator load unless an open circuit or severe grounding fault is actively introduced. This incident represents a catastrophic failure directly following the execution of an official federal safety recall remedy.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"X4","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
