BMW Expands Recall To 1.6 Million Vehicles Worldwide Over Fire Risk

Has the mystery finally be solved?

BMW has just announced that it is expanding a recall to cover a total of 1.6 million vehicles globally because of possible fluid leaks that could result in a fire, the Associated Press reports. The German automaker believes that in some of its diesel vehicles coolant could leak from the exhaust gas recirculation module, which is part of the emissions reduction system. The leaks may then mix with soot at high temperatures and start a fire. BMW has already decided to recall some 480,000 vehicles in Asia and Europe following reports of fires in South Korea. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

This all began a few years ago when certain BMW models began bursting into flames in South Korea. The German automaker had no immediate explanation for the fires, but it began investigating. Several months later, it issued a recall for a little over 150,000 vehicles, of which 136,000 were in the US. The affected vehicles - X5s, X6s, and 5 and 6 Series vehicles built between 2007 and 2012 - were believed to have a wiring problem for the fuel pump. A loose connection and improper contact could cause the connector to melt, and turn into a fuel leak. The car would then likely stall and a fire could erupt.

Jump ahead to this past August and South Korea decided to ban 20,000 BMWs from its roads due to more engine fires. A total of 13 owners there filed a class action lawsuit against BMW and even the South Korean government appealed to affected owners not to drive their cars. The vehicle in question here is the diesel-powered 520d. The recall announced today is for vehicles built between 2010 and 2017. BMW says affected customers, 54,000 of whom live in the US and Canada, will be contacted shortly. Hopefully, the problem has been solved once and for all.

Rearview Camera Recall Will Displease Bentley Mulsanne Owners

How bothersome.

Though it doesn't happen often, exotic car manufacturers aren't exempt from recalls. As they work in extremely low production numbers, recalls are often hilariously small - like when Rolls-Royce recalled a single Ghost for a faulty airbag.

A few years ago, Bentley was forced to recall 88 examples of its Bentayga SUV for loose joints in the instrument panel and seats, and now it is the Mulsanne's turn for a recall. Just ten 2018 Mulsanne models are affected by a rearview camera glitch and owners are now being notified.

The issue occurs when the driver selects reverse gear. The backup camera is supposed to initiate in less than two seconds, but the display may be obstructed and not fully visible. Like other Bentley models, the Mulsanne features a wood cover that is motorized to reveal the infotainment display. Bentley hasn't specified if this cover has anything to do with the issue, but the fix is a simple software update via an SD card that should eliminate the issue.

It may not be a major problem, but we'd want all the help we could get when reversing in a $300,000 car, especially one as large as the Mulsanne.

Maserati also had an issue with its rearview cameras, although it was caused by failing camera modules in cold weather. We have also experienced a similar issue in modern Volvo models, which can take a minute for the infotainment system to warm up fully when the car is started. Having the rearview camera system turn on almost simultaneously when the car is put into reverse should be an easy accomplishment on a $30,000 car, let alone a $300,000 one. Still, it seems like some automakers haven't mastered it.

There's Already A 2018 BMW M5 Recall For Faulty Fuel Pumps

And a stop-sale order to dealerships for affected cars.

It is not only older vehicles that are affected by recalls, but also all-new ones that suffer from early production issues. The all-new 2018 BMW M5 is one of them. According to the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration (NHTSA), 846 model year 2018 M5s have faulty engine control unit software that could cause the fuel pump to stop, stalling the vehicle. As a result, the increase risk of a crash exists. Thankfully, the fix is actually rather simple.

Dealership technicians will simply update the software in the ECU. The affected vehicles have been identified as those built from August 21, 2017 until April 17, 2018. BMW has also issued a stop-sale order to dealerships for those specific vehicles falling within the production dates that have yet to be sold. There’s also a second BMW recall, only this one involves 2010-2011 model year 335d diesel sedans. A total of 6,591 vehicles are affected. The problem lies with the connection of the positive battery cable at the fuse box terminal, which may degrade over time. This could potentially result in the loss of electrical power causing the vehicle to stall.

Dealers are instructed to replace the positive battery cable connector and better secure the replacement unit. Affected owners for the M5 and 335d sedans, a total of 7,437 BMW vehicles, will be notified beginning on July 6.
