The company was formed in 1928 as Borg-Warner Corporation. It was formed as a fusion of companies including Borg & Beck, Marvel-Schebler, Warner Gear and Mechanics Universal Joint. In 1987 Borg-Warner Corporation ceased to exist as a result of a series of complex financial transactions, although a new company of the same name (still Borg-Warner Corporation) continued the business. At the same time, Borg-Warner Automotive Inc. was created as a subsidiary of the new company; the mother company, the new Borg-Warner Corporation, was later known as Borg-Warner Security Corporation. In 1993 Borg-Warner Automotive Inc. was spun-off from Borg-Warner Security Corporation and became an independent company [note 1]. In 2005, BorgWarner's world headquarters was moved from Chicago to the metro Detroit area. Over the years, BorgWarner has bought many other automotive companies that have become part of BorgWarner, giving BorgWarner a very wide (as in large) pedigree in the automotive world.

Since 1936, the company has offered an annual prize for the winner of the Indianapolis 500.[10]

In February 2022, it was announced BorgWarner had acquired Santroll Automotive Components - a subsidiary of the Chinese company Santroll’s eMotor business, for up to ¥1.4 billion.[11]
