Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2025 BMW M2 sits at the peak of a relatively flat complaint trajectory that began in 2016, rose modestly in 2017, and then declined to zero complaints in 2019 and 2023. During this period recalls hovered between one and two per year, with no investigations reported, indicating a stable safety record. The 2025 model’s single complaint—service brakes—was the only issue flagged that year and represents the lowest complaint volume seen across the decade, matching the zero‑complaint years of 2019 and 2023. This places the 2025 M2 at the apex of the decline in consumer complaints, suggesting it is the most reliable year within the generation. Given its minimal complaint and recall history, the 2025 M2 is a strong candidate for purchase.
