Some BMW 745Li owners report experiencing a "Dynamic Drive Inactive" alert, which can be triggered by issues such as sensor malfunctions, electrical glitches, or problems with the battery or alternator. This alert may also be accompanied by other warning messages, such as a flashing parking brake or brake/drive fault. While many owners find it generally safe to drive the vehicle to a shop despite the alert, it is advisable to seek professional assistance from a BMW mechanic to diagnose and resolve the specific cause. Additionally, understanding the vehicle's maintenance history, including recent replacements of components like the alternator or battery, may provide insights into the issue. In some cases, a software update may be necessary to address the alert effectively.
