The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced that BMW has recalled certain 2012-2018 model vehicles.
The statement stated that in these vehicles, an electrical connection part that is not properly closed in the water pump can be exposed to water and cause a short circuit, and that the short circuit increases the risk of fire.
The statement stated that the number of potential vehicles affected by the recall is 720,796, and that dealers will examine the water pump and plug connection part free of charge, replace them if necessary, and install a protective shield.
The statement stated that it is expected that owners of vehicles affected by the recall will be notified starting on October 4 recorded.
BMW recalled more than 100,000 vehicles in the United States earlier this month and more than 1.3 million in China last week due to an engine defect that could cause overheating or, in rare cases, fire.
