What Happened
The fuel pump in your motorcycle is the part that sends gasoline from the tank to your engine. In certain 2011-2014 BMW models, this pump may crack and leak fuel while you're riding.
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel pump cracks and leaks, fuel could spill onto the hot engine or exhaust, causing a fire. This is a serious risk, especially on a motorcycle where you're more exposed.
Free Fix
Your local BMW dealer will replace the faulty fuel pump with a new one, at no cost to you. Schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
