BMW phased out the use of asbestos in its brake components in the late 1980s, with most models transitioning to asbestos-free materials by the early 1990s. This change was part of a broader industry movement to eliminate asbestos due to health concerns associated with its use. As a result, BMW's commitment to safety and environmental standards led to the adoption of alternative materials for brake systems.
