宝马在美召回720796辆2012至2018年款汽车:水泵电连接器密封不当可进水短路起火,管理局编号26V-733、车主须户外停车

宝马北美公司向美国国家公路交通安全管理局提交的一份召回报告,把 720796 辆汽车列入新一轮安全召回。管理局 11 月 13 日刊出的召回汇总显示,这项编号 26V-733 的召回涉及部分 2012 至 2018 年款的宝马 2 系、3 系、4 系、5 系、X1、X3、X4、X5 xDrive40e 与 Z4 车型,各车型年款范围不一。
管理局记录称,这批车辆水泵上一个密封不当的电连接器可能接触到水并发生短路,短路会增加起火风险。车主被建议在召回维修完成前,把车辆停在户外并远离建筑物。

宝马在报告中称,截至 10 月 28 日决定召回时,该公司在美国知悉约 10 宗与此问题有关或可能有关的实地个案,未收到与此问题相关的事故或受伤报告。按车型计,2012 至 2016 年款 3 系轿车为 236702 辆,2013 至 2017 年款 X3 为 163728 辆,2012 至 2016 年款 5 系为 110102 辆。

BMW Recalls 720,796 Vehicles From the 2012 to 2018 Model Years in the United States: a Water Pump Electrical Connector May Short Circuit and Raise Fire Risk, Under NHTSA Campaign 26V-733, With Owners Told to Park Outside
A recall report filed by BMW of North America with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration places 720,796 vehicles under a new safety recall. The administration record, summarized on November 13, lists the campaign as 26V-733 and covers certain 2012 to 2018 BMW 2 Series, 3 Series, 4 Series and 5 Series, X1, X3, X4, X5 xDrive40e and Z4 models, with years varying by model.
The record says an improperly sealed electrical connector on the water pump may be exposed to water and short circuit, and that a short circuit increases the risk of a fire. Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures until the recall remedy is completed.
BMW report says this recall replaces recall 24V-608 from 2024, and vehicles already repaired under it will need the new remedy. The remedy is still under development, will be performed free of charge at an authorized BMW center, owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in December, and vehicle identification numbers will be searchable on the administration website beginning December 25.
BMW says that as of its October 28 decision to conduct the recall, it was aware of about 10 field instances in the United States that relate, or may relate, to the issue, and had received no reports of accidents or injuries related to it. By model, the report counts 236,702 3 Series sedans from the 2012 to 2016 model years, 163,728 X3 vehicles from 2013 to 2017, and 110,102 5 Series vehicles from the 2012 to 2016 model years.
