Recall #1 Issued: 2012 09 28 - Camp #20120928
This 2013 BMW M5 recall affects the ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE Manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC from 2012-07-19 through 2012-09-11
Description Of Defect
BMW is recalling certain model year 2013 M5, M6 Coupe, and M6 Convertible vehicles, manufactured from July 19, 2012, through September 11, 2012. Due to a manufacturing process error, the tolerance between the engine oil pump's drive shaft and the pump's rotor was not within specification. As a result, the pump's driveshaft could separate from the rotor.
Conseqence Of Defect
Separation of the pump's driveshaft from the rotor could lead to a sudden loss of oil pressure causing the possibility of complete engine failure, resulting in an engine stall-like condition, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Corrective Action
BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the oil pump, free of charge. The safety recall began on November 30, 2012. Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-525-7417.
