CarRecallWatch- Component
- FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
- Problem
- BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020-2021 M2 Coupe and 2020 M4 Coupe vehicles. Fuel injectors may have been installed without a damping component which is used to reduce vibration. If a damping component is not present, vibration will increase at the connection between the fuel line and the fuel rail, which over time, can result in damage at the connection.
- Risk
- A damaged connection between the fuel line and the fuel rail could lead to a fuel leak and, in the presence of an ignition source, increase the risk of a fire.
- Remedy
- BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel injectors and if a damping component is missing, the injectors and the fuel rail will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began December 18, 2020. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
Some fuel injectors on these vehicles may have been installed without a damping component meant to reduce vibration. Without it, vibration increases at the connection between the fuel line and the fuel rail, and over time that connection can become damaged.
A damaged connection can cause a fuel leak. If fuel leaks near an ignition source, it increases the risk of a fire. Owners should take this recall seriously and act promptly.
BMW will notify owners. Dealers will inspect the fuel injectors, and if a damping component is missing, the injectors and fuel rail will be replaced free of charge. You can contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417, and you should check your VIN for open recalls.
