The BMW car company is to recall around 26,000 BMW models in the UK as well as about 1,200 Rolls-Royces due to a braking problem.
The recall involves BMW 5, 6 and 7 Series vehicles powered by V8 and V12 engines from the 2002-2010 model years and some Rolls-Royce Phantom cars from the 2003-2010 model years.
The problem involves leaks which could develop in the power braking system.
A BMW spokesman said today: "We are writing to all the owners involved asking them to arrange a service appointment.
"There have not been any accidents or injuries."
A similar problem was revealed this year in some BMW motorbikes.
In May BMW announced a recall of 122,000 motorcycles worldwide due to the discovery of a leak in the braking system.
The German vehicle manufacturer said a risk of leaks had been identified in the K 1200 GT model.
