BMW issued a recall for nearly 200,000 vehicles, citing a possible risk of fire due to engine corrosion.
BMW of North America issued the “park outside recall,” instructing owners of certain BMW vehicles from model years 2019-2022 to park outside because of a risk of fire while parked or being driven, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said in a notice on Friday.
“Owners should park outside and away from buildings and other vehicles until they either confirm their vehicle is not subject to the recall or have their vehicle remedied,” the notice read.
The risk stems from the vehicle’s engine starter relay, which may corrode, causing the relay to overheat, short-circuit, and possibly start a fire.
BMW is conducting a “phased recall” due to “parts availability.” The company will notify owners by mail on Nov. 14, and a second notice is slated to be sent out as soon as remedy parts are available.
Vehicle owners are invited to call BMW customer service at 800-525-7417 with questions.
The recall also affects 1,469 Toyota Supra vehicles, manufactured by BMW, from model years 2020 to 2022.
