S. Korea to ban 20,000 BMWs following engine fires
SEOUL — South Korea’s transport ministry said on Tuesday it would ban about 20,000 BMW vehicles from the streets amid mounting public fears about engine fires.
The driving ban comes after 27 engines went up in flames between January and July, which prompted BMW’s Korea unit to apologize last week and order a recall of 106,000 diesel-powered vehicles including the 520d that starts Aug. 20.
