Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 63308, member: 636"] BMW has issued a recall affecting more than 145,000 vehicles because of a starter defect that could cause fires. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration identified the problem in X5, X6, X7 models and certain 2020 340i, 840i, and 740Li sedans. Faulty starters may overheat and ignite engine acoustic protection material if contaminated, which could result in a thermal event while driving or after parking. The automaker will replace defective starters with redesigned units at no cost to owners. Affected customers will receive mailed notifications with instructions to schedule dealership appointments for repairs. This action follows a recent recall announcement involving nearly 200,000 BMW vehicles with engine corrosion issues. [/QUOTE]
