Zero recalls and just seven unverified owner complaints place it in the lowest administrative burden band. No complaints cited a crash, fire, injury, or fatality. The individual allegations of engine problems, unknown issues, service brake anomalies, lane departure system glitches, and forward collision avoidance malfunctions do not indicate a concentrated pattern of safety concerns. There are no other tested model years of the 2 Series in the federal program for comparison.
