BMW K 1200 RS 2003 Safety Review #10466039
BMW K 1200 RS 2003 car safety problem was reported on July 13, 2012.BMW K 1200 RS 2003, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . WHILE RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE, FUEL BEGAN FORCEFULLY SPRAYING OUT OF THE RIGHT SIDE ENGINE AREA ON TO MY LEG. I STOPPED THE ENGINE AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS CLEAR THAT LEAK WAS COMING FROM A FUEL QUICK DISCONNECT ON LINE RUNNING ALONG RIGHT SIDE OF ENGINE. THE DISCONNECT WAS LEAKING BECAUSE A PLASTIC INTERNAL PART HAD BROKEN. CALLED UP THE LOCAL BMW DEALERSHIP AND DESCRIBED THE QUICK DISCONNECT LEAK AND THEY IMMEDIATELY RECOGNIZED THE PROBLEM AND COMMENTED THAT "IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME" THAT "THE PLASTIC PART BREAKS AND IS NOW DESIGNED USING A METAL PART". THERE WAS A RECALL (52513) THAT WAS ISSUED IN JANUARY 2004 CONCERNING INSPECTING THE QUICK DISCONNECT FOR LEAKAGE, AND REPLACE AS NEEDED, BUT THAT RECALL WAS NEVER PERFORMED ON MY BIKE AND ACCORDING TO BMW WAS SOMEHOW NOT APPLICABLE TO MY BIKE. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN ON A BIKE (OR CAR FOR THAT MATTER) YET ACCORDING TO THE DEALER IS PRETTY PREVALENT AND THERE IS APPARENTLY A FIX TO THE DEFECT THAT I WAS NOT INFORMED ABOUT AND AS FAR AS I KNOW IS NOT EVEN THE SUBJECT OF ANY OTHER RECALL. IF THIS IS THE CASE, I THINK THERE SHOULD BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL OF ALL AFFECTED BIKES AND THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT ADDRESSED. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 10000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WB10557A73Z. Bmw K 1200 Rs 2003 problem was reported in NEW YORK, NY. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
