2013 BMW M6 Recalls (2)

Campaign:
12V475000 on 09/27/2012
Component:
Engine and engine cooling:engine
Manufactured:
07/18/2012 - 09/10/2012
Affected:
696
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.
Consequence:
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.
Correction:
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.
Notes:
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Component:
Air bags:frontal:driver side inflator module
Manufactured:
05/13/2012 - 07/24/2012

Defect:
Bmw of north america, llc. (bmw) is recalling certain 2012-2013 bmw x3 xdrive28i, x3 xdrive35i, and m6 convertible vehicles and 2013 m6 coupe vehicles. the affected vehicles have a driver's frontal air bag inflator that may have been improperly welded.
Consequence:
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator housing could separate from the base plate and result in metal striking the vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death.
Correction:
Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's front air bag module, free of charge. the recall began october 6, 2017. owners may contact bmw customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
Notes:
