Overview

2025 BMW 760i

The 2025 BMW 760i combines a robust 4.4-liter V8 engine with all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission, delivering a potent yet refined driving experience. While its EPA-estimated 20 MPG combined is respectable for its class, buyers should be aware of two significant recalls impacting the integrated brake system. These recalls address potential failures in the electric control module, which could lead to a loss of power brake assist and affect stability control. Although no consumer complaints have been logged for this specific model year, the nature of these recalls warrants a thorough inspection of the braking system. The vehicle's reliability is assessed as average, primarily due to these critical safety system concerns.

Critical Failure Risk

Early detection can help you avoid a $1,500-$3,000 repair.
