Technical Service
PERFORM THE PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THIS SERVICE INFORMATION ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES BEFORE CUSTOMER
DELIVERY OR THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE IN THE SHOP FOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS.
Under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended, if there has been a recall campaign, dealers must assure that all new
vehicles and new items of replacement equipment are free of safety defects and comply with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
at the time of delivery to the consumer. This means that dealers may not deliver new motor vehicles or new items of replacement equipment to
consumers unless the safety defect or noncompliance has been remedied before delivery.
SUBJECT
Recall Campaign 10V-047: Inspect Tire Information Placard
MODEL
7 Series (F02)
5 Series Gran Turismo (F07)
SITUATION
Certain vehicles were produced with the incorrect Tire Information Label installed. The Tire Information Label may not reflect the proper seating
capacity for the vehicle. This Recall Campaign is being performed to inspect and correct the label, as necessary. Customers will receive notification
letters. Tire Information Labels should be ordered in advance of the customer's service appointment. The necessary order form is attached to this
bulletin.
AFFECTED VEHICLES
This Recall Campaign involves 750Li and 5 Series Gran Turismo models which were produced from September 7, 2009, to November 26, 2009.
In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Recall Campaign completed or is affected by this Recall Campaign, first check the
B-pillar label for code number 559. If code number 559 has been punched out, the campaign has already been performed. If code number 559 has
not been punched out, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader. Based on
the response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action.
PROCEDURE
Open the driver's door and inspect the Tire Information Label located on the B-pillar. The affected vehicles were produced with a label which
indicates a seating capacity of 5. However, the vehicle has a seating capacity of 4.
If the seating capacity listed on the label indicates 4, no further action is necessary. If the seating capacity indicates 5, wipe off the label with a clean,
lint-free cloth and apply a new label directly over the existing label.

C. Affix the label to the B-Pillar as shown.

top of another one, because a number from an underlying label could appear in the punched-out hole of the new label.
