Critical #13V617000 Plain English
Component

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The fuel pump flange in your motorcycle is a part that connects the fuel pump to your tank. In some 2005-2012 R, K, S 1000, and 2006-2010 HP2 models, this flange can crack and start leaking fuel.
Risk if Unfixed
If the flange leaks and you're near an ignition source, like an open flame or a spark, there's a real risk of a fire breaking out.
Free Fix
Your local BMW dealer will either reinforce the flange to prevent leaks or replace the pump entirely – both fixes are free for you. You'll be notified when the repair is ready, and they'll take care of it for you.

WHEELS:LUGS/NUTS/BOLTS/STUDS

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The rear wheel mounting flange is the part that keeps your rear wheel attached to the motorcycle. In some of your 2005-2011 BMW motorcycles, this flange can crack if the bolts are over-tightened.
Risk if Unfixed
If the flange cracks, the bolts could loosen, and your rear wheel might come loose. This could cause your motorcycle to wobble and lose stability, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will swap out the aluminum rear wheel flange with a stronger, steel one, at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
