Feb 11 (Reuters) – BMW is recalling hundreds of thousands of cars, newspaper Bild reported on Wednesday, citing the German premium carmaker.

Increased wear and tear can occur in the magnetic switch after a high number of starts, Bild said, which could make it harder or impossible to start the car, with a risk of a short circuit and fire in the worst-case scenario.

BMW did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
