What Happened
The fuel pump in your motorcycle is what delivers gas to the engine. In certain models, this pump could crack and start leaking fuel while you're riding.
Risk if Unfixed
If the pump cracks and leaks fuel, it could catch fire if there's an ignition source nearby, like a spark or hot exhaust. This could cause a serious fire hazard.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will replace the faulty fuel pump with a new one, free of charge. You'll be notified when the repair is ready, and you should schedule it as soon as possible.
