VERDICT

The 2022 BMW M4 enters the market without federal crash-test ratings. As a result, no Safety Index score has been computed for this model year. The absence of comprehensive crash-test data from NHTSA means that traditional star ratings for frontal, side, or rollover protection are not available. Despite the lack of crash-test results, the 2022 M4 presents a clean record regarding federal oversight for recalls and consumer complaints. NHTSA files show zero recalls issued for this model year. Furthermore, only two consumer complaints have been reported to the agency, neither of which alleged crashes, fires, injuries, or fatalities. This minimal complaint volume, coupled with no recall activity, suggests a limited but unalarming federal record. Potential buyers should consider the available data without interpreting the absence of crash-test evaluations as either an endorsement or a specific warning regarding the vehicle's safety performance.

The 2022 BMW M4 was not crash-tested by NHTSA, carries zero recalls on file, and holds a Clean recall-and-complaint burden band according to NHTSA federal safety data.
