What This Recall Means

Component

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC

What Happened

The disc brake system on your motorcycle has a small washer that helps keep the brake disc securely attached. However, this washer can sometimes interfere with the tightness of the brake fasteners.

Risk if Unfixed

If the brake fasteners become loose over time, your brake disc could become loose, which can make it harder to stop your motorcycle. This could increase the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your authorized BMW dealer will remove the washer and re-tighten the brake fasteners to ensure they stay secure – all at no cost to you. You'll be notified when the repair is ready to be done.
