BMW agreed to a settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit alleging a warning light in its vehicles may come on in error if there is a liquid spill in a cup holder.

Plaintiffs in the defect class action lawsuit claim supplemental restraint system (SRS) warning lights can come on in BMW vehicles if liquid spills from cups in vehicle cup holders. These inaccurate warning lights allegedly stem from a defect in the vehicles’ design.

BMW is a luxury car brand with locations around the United States. Advance Auto Parts carries parts for BMW.

BMW hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to resolve these allegations.
