NHTSA Campaign 18V755000 Recall Details

What This Recall Means

Component

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)

What Happened

The EGR valve in your vehicle is a crucial part that helps reduce emissions. In certain models, the integrated cooler in this valve can leak, causing a potentially hazardous situation.

Risk if Unfixed

If the EGR cooler leaks, it could cause soot to mix with coolant and smolder in your engine. This can lead to the intake manifold melting, increasing the risk of a fire.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your BMW dealer will inspect the EGR cooler and replace it if necessary, and also replace the intake manifold if it has been damaged. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as possible.
