Safety recalls for BMW.

European Union 1999–2006

Bmw 3 Series

null The front passenger-side inflators could create excessive internal pressure during airbag deployment after long-term exposure to high, absolute humidity environments. In a worst-case scenario, the inflator may rupture, possibly causing injury.
European Union 2013–2014

Bmw R 1200 RT

null Due to a manufacturing defect, the piston rod of the rear spring strut in connection with the Dynamic ESA could break, potentially leading to a loss of stability. There is a risk that the motorcyclist may fall off.
European Union 2011–2013

Bmw R 1200 GS

null Due to pulsating oil pressure, the sealing ring at the transmission output may be pushed out of the transmission housing. As a result, oil may leak out onto the rear tyre.
European Union

Bmw X5

null The child safety lock mechanism on the rear doors may be unintentionally deactivated due to divergent tolerances of the moving parts in the Soft Close Automatic (SCA) door lock.
European Union 2012–2013

Bmw F 700 GS, F 800 GS, F 800 GS Adventure, F 800 GT, R 1200 R, C 600 Sport, C 650 GT, R 1200 GS

null Owing to a possibly defective seal on the side stand switch, water may penetrate and cause the side stand switch to malfunction. An engine cut-out while the motorcycle is being ridden cannot be ruled out.
European Union 2010

Bmw 640i Cabrio

null The universal joint of the drive shaft may break and cause a sudden loss of drive. The rotating drive shaft may also cause damage.
European Union 2011–2013

Bmw X3

null In the event of an accident with airbag deployment, the passenger front airbag may not deploy correctly. This can lead to an increased risk of injury for the passenger.
European Union 2010–2012

Bmw K1600GT, K1600GTL

null The plausibility limits stored in the engine control unit for monitoring throttle signals are too narrow. Incorrect processing of the signals may cause the engine to cut out when the motorcycle is in motion with the risk of the rider falling from the motorcycle. European Union 2005–2009

Bmw F800S, F800ST

null Due to poor tolerances, there can be exceptionally high wear of the rear-wheel bearings. If the wear goes unnoticed for a long time, this could in exceptional circumstances result in the rear wheel locking with the risk of the rider falling from the motorcycle.
European Union

Bmw F700GS and F800GS

null The side-stand switch is not fixed tightly enough. The switch may become loose and be damaged, causing the engine to stop or the possibility of the motorcycle being ridden with the side stand in the down position.
European Union 2009

Bmw 1 series, 5 series, 7 series, X3, X5, X6

null An unreliable internal contact in the fuel filter heater can lead to the fuel filter heater being permanently activated, even when the vehicle is stationary. In a few isolated cases, the fuel filter heater may as a result become overheated.
European Union 2009

Bmw X5, X6, 730d/740d, 520d, X3 2.0d, 116d/118d/120d/123d Hatch, 118d/120d/123d Convertible/

null Electrically weak contacts may occur on the PCB of the fuel filter heater. As a result, under unfavourable conditions, individual components on the PCB of the fuel filter heater may overheat and cause a fire in the vehicle.
European Union

Bmw C650 GT

null The attachment bolts of the luggage rack (optional accessory) are not adequately attached to the vehicle and can easily separate, thus constituting a risk for other vehicles or persons.
European Union

Bmw 3 Series

null A degradation of the inflator propellant for the front passenger air bag could occur over time. This could lead in very rare cases to an overly aggressive combustion of the propellant during an airbag deployment possibly resulting in separation of the airbag housing and injury of the vehicle occupant.
European Union

Bmw X5 4.8i

null Motor oil may leak from the brake vacuum pump into the vacuum hose and from there onto the brake booster. In isolated cases, the motor oil could damage the membrane and affect the power assist braking.
European Union

Bmw S1000RR

null The bolts for attaching the side stand to the chassis could loosen. The motorcycle could thus fall over instead of resting on the stand.
European Union

Bmw K1300S, K1300R

null On long journeys at constant, very high engine speeds, air can enter the hydraulic system of the front wheel brake. This may result in a pronounced loss of front wheel brake efficiency. European Union

Bmw X5

null The product poses a risk of injuries as there may be a sudden loss of power steering which could lead to a traffic accident.
European Union

Bmw C600 Sport

null At high speeds (>160 km/h), the front side panel can come loose from the fixtures and thus from the vehicle.
European Union 2006–2008

Bmw K40, K43, K43HV

null On long journeys at constant, very high speeds, air may enter the front wheel brake. This may result in a pronounced loss of front wheel brake efficiency which may lead to a road accident.
