POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
What Happened
The axle shaft is like a long rod that connects the wheels to the transmission. In some 2009 F800 GS models, a crucial part of this rod might not be strong enough.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rod breaks, it could cause your vehicle to lose control, which could lead to a crash. This is a serious risk, especially at high speeds.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will inspect and replace the front wheel quick-release axle with a stronger, improved version at no extra cost to you.
