BMW K1200LT Fuel/propulsion System

BMW K1200LT 2004 Safety Review #10522729

BMW K1200LT 2004 car safety problem was reported on June 27, 2013.BMW K1200LT 2004, manufactured by BMW of North America, LLC had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . FUEL LINE QUICK DISCONNECT FAILED AS VEHICLE SLOWED FOR STOPPING AT INTERSECTION. FUEL UNDER PRESSURE FROM RUNNING ENGINE WAS RELEASED ONTO THE ENGINE, THE ROAD SURFACE AND DRIVER'S RIGHT LEG. NO WARNING, SOUND OR LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, JUST STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE UNTIL I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW THE FUEL WETTING EVERYTHING. THIS IS APPARENTLY A COMMON FAILURE AND IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE BMWLT.COM FORUM, INVOLVING HUNDREDS OF THESE AND SIMILAR MODEL BMW MOTORCYCLES. THESE OEM QUICK DISCONNECTS ARE MADE OF PLASTIC AND CANNOT WITHSTAND COMMON USAGE. REPAIR IS COMMONLY MADE WITH ALL METAL PARTS OF THE SAME DESIGN. FIRES HAVE BEEN REPORTED FROM THIS FAILURE, WITH TOTAL LOSS OF THE VEHICLE REPORTED. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A LIFE-SAFETY ISSUE WHICH THE MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF, BUT IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING, AND A RECALL OF THIS PART IS ADVISABLE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 43360 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WB10555A64Z. Bmw K1200lt 2004 problem was reported in ALGONQUIN, IL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 20 mph.
