On Sept. 30, BMW recalled 2,552 Rolls-Royce Phantoms because of a risk that they might develop a leak in the power-braking system, which could cause vacuum loss and consequent reduction of power braking. The last Phantom recall before September was in 2006, when 32 vehicles were recalled because of a problem with the shock absorbers.
