Airbag

Transport Canada recall 2017388

9 August 2017

Transport Canada lists: 6 2012–2013 · X 3 2011–2012

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the housing of the driver's frontal airbag inflator may have been incorrectly welded during manufacturing and could separate from the base plate during an airbag deployment. If the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, metal fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, which could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the driver's frontal airbag. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2016-461. Additional Note: For 6-Series vehicles, only 2012-2013 model year M6 Cabriolet's and 2013 model year M6 Coupe's are involved in this campaign.

Transport Canada recall 2012323

27 September 2012

Transport Canada lists: 5 2013 · 6 2013

What is wrong

One certain M5, M6 cabriolet and M6 coupe, the oil pump drive shaft could separate from the oil pump rotor. This could lead to a sudden loss of oil pressure causing severe engine damage, and the possibility of complete engine failure while driving. Loss of vehicle propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the engine oil pump.
