I experienced multiple unintended gear changes while stopped in traffic in a 2026 BMW X2 xDrive28i (~11,800 miles, rental vehicle, prior usage unknown). The vehicle uses a small electronic toggle gear selector located immediately adjacent to the cupholders. Incident 1: While stopped with my foot on the brake, the engine shut off due to auto start/stop.

I immediately pulled the selector back and the vehicle resumed normal forward movement. I did not intentionally shift gears and…

Counts are a starting point, not a verdict: popular models collect more complaints because more of them are on the road, and NHTSA does not verify individual reports. To see whether a recall is still open on your car, enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls (U.S.) or your registration at check-vehicle-recalls.service.gov.uk (UK). Had a safety problem? Report it to NHTSA; complaints are what trigger investigations and recalls.
