Just notice this recall. I think it is i5 EV only.

-------
Dec 22,2023
Manufacturer Recall NumberNA
NHTSA Recall Number23V885
Recall StatusRecall Incomplete
Summary
EXTERNAL ARTIFICIAL SOUND GENERATOR: Potentially affected vehicles may not generate the external artificial sound at low vehicle speeds, e.g., while slowing down at an intersection, and therefore may not meet a Federal requirement.

Safety Risk
This could increase the risk of injury to certain pedestrians who may need this sound to be aware of a nearby vehicle (such as when accelerating / decelerating near an intersection).

Remedy
Vehicle software will be updated for free, and should take about an hour.
