BMW Recalls 721,000 cars and SUVs due to fire hazard - what you need to know.

A recent article from Car and Driver reported that BMW is recalling nearly 721,000 cars and SUVs due to a fire risk (https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a46905134/bmw-brake-system-malfunction-recall/). The culprit? A faulty water pump that could potentially overheat and cause a fire in the engine compartment.

This is a serious issue, and if you own a BMW that is included in the recall, it's important to take action as soon as possible. Here's a breakdown of what you need to know:

  • Affected Vehicles: The recall covers a wide range of BMW models from the 2015 to 2017 model years, including the 3 Series, 4 Series, X1, X3, X5, and X6. You can find a complete list of affected vehicles on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls).

  • The Fire Risk: The faulty water pump can overheat and cause a fire in the engine compartment. A car fire can cause serious injury and property damage.

  • What to Do: If you own an affected vehicle, you will receive a notification from BMW in the mail. The automaker will then repair the faulty water pump free of charge. It is recommended that you schedule a service appointment with your local BMW dealer as soon as possible.
