Some BMW X1 owners report experiencing a warning message to "secure vehicle from rolling" due to a broken gear selector spring, which is a common issue in several BMW and Mini models. This internal spring failure can trigger the warning light, indicating a need for immediate attention. Many owners advise having the issue checked by a Service Partner to properly diagnose and repair the transmission warning associated with the broken spring. Additionally, some owners suggest reporting this problem to relevant authorities, such as the NHTSA and the Center for Automotive Safety, to prompt further investigation and potential resolution.
