My husband and I own a 2010 Mini Cooper Clubman, which we bought from a used car dealer in September 2022. The control module failed this summer, resulting in the high beams not functioning. A safety recall was issued by MINI a few weeks after we made repairs for that same problem. We are writing to request assistance in securing reimbursement from MINI for the cost of parts and labor to replace the control module. Because the NY State Inspection was due soon for our car, we needed to have a new control module installed in the car as quickly as possible. The control module was installed by East End Garage in Jefferson in mid-August. This Garage is close to our home and has competent mechanics who are able to work on Mini Coopers without difficulty. Shortly after the work was ·completed, the mechanic at East End Garage told us that a recall had been issued for Footwell Control Modules (FRM) in 2007-2014 Mini Clubman models, and he gave us a State of New York Supplementary Information...

The letter states, "This safety recall involves the Footwell Control Module (FRM), an electronic control unit located behind an interior trim panel in the driver's footwell area. Due to a number of contributing factors, over time, the FRM could become susceptible to corrosion. Eventually, the corrosion could potentially result in a short circuit, resulting in a potential thermal event which could increase the risk of fire or injury." As of today, August 20, 2024 this recall does not have a fix, and has not been fixed in my car. I am upset that your website states that there is not recall on my car, when I have the letter in front of me. As well, my mechanic tells me this FRM controls the windows, sunroof, and lights. My sunroof hasn't worked properly since just before this recall came out. My mechanic states that MINI/BMW is aware of the problem, yet has not solution. How is it a car make...

Received a recall letter, July 2023 for the footwell control module on our Mini Cooper Clubman. One 11-29 2023 I sent an email to customer relations because we have not heard anything back about the recall. Received a email from Abigail from monitoring relations on 11-30 2023 she wanted information as far as the VIN number address, name, etc. information was sent that day. I received a email on 12- 2023 that the case has been forward to the management team to an unexpected phone call from them. I did indeed call the number and left a message to call me back. Information given to me that return call was the same which has been repeatedly given to me that they’re working on the recall and will notify us as soon as they have a remedy. I was also told that the issues we have with the mini Cooper during the rain, acting all crazy electronically etc was due to the foot well control module. I sent a message on 5–29-2024 because we still have not heard anything about the recall, this message...
