Engine stalls when trying to leave a red light after the light turns green and moves a few feet.
Existing nhtsa recall number is 20v476recall was started aug 2020. Bmw issued stop sale on my model and related models. Found out during service oct 2020 that my bike was affected. Bmw today march 4th 2021 told me they don't have a date for replacement brake parts.i cannot trade or sell this bike with this recall and bmw has no remedy. Bmw has had more than enough time to fix this recall permanently and as such i think they should be forced to buy back customer's motorcycles.existing nhtsa recall number is 20v476
I purchased the motorcycle in early march 2020. I left the motorcycle on its center at my relative's residence, in southern california. Two and a half weeks later i returned to my relative's residence to retrieve it and noticed an accumulation of brake fluid on the front wheel, at the 6 o'clock position. I cleaned the fluid and inspected the brake caliper. I did not think of taking photos of my findings at the time. I returned home with the motorcycle. On 3-27-2020 i rode the motorcycle to the bmw motorcycles of concord, ca. The technician inspected the front brake calipers and confirmed both calipers had evidence of fluid leakage. I was told by becky, a service representative, bmw is aware of the issue but doesn'thave the parts to fix the problem at this moment. For the safety of others, it is imperative the powers that be, whether bmw or nhtsa, launch an official recall for this potential grave defect.
In january 2020, i was adding some accessories to my bike in the garage and noticed brake fluid on the bottoms of the front brake calipers.upon further inspection, the brake mounting brackets at the end of the forks were stained from leaking fluid.i reported it to the dealer, eurocycles of sonoma.they had me bring in the bike on february 8th.according to the service tech, they took the calipers apart and replaced seals and pistons followed by pressure testing.they informed me that the front calipers needed to be replaced.i was told the replacements would arrive in the 9th week of 2020.i just followed up(3-4-20) with the service dept and they are still on back order with a new eta of the 2nd week of march.on the bmw riders forums, many 2019 r series owners are reporting leaking brakes.
Purchased 2019 bmw r1250rt on august 1, 2019. Noticed brake fluid leaking from day one but really didn't think anything of it at first. Fast forward to december 2020 and was doing a routine search on another vehicle and i thought i should check for recalls on my bike. Thats when i found recall campaign no: 20v-476. Bike has been sitting in garage ever since with 920 miles on it. I paid over 27,000.00 grand total. I took the bike to the dealer yesterday and asked about repairs and owner told me bmw are replacing brake rotors with brembo brakes. Ok, great do it! owner states that they are not available. I asked him if he and bmw were going to buy my bike back given that i cant ride it or sell it. He stated that i would have to take it up with bmw corporation. I finally decided to just sell it to him at $17000.00. So now i am going after bmw for the other $10,000.00.
Leaking break calipers after 618 miles. The issue was discovered during my initial 600 mile maintenance schedule. Bmw is selling these bikes with know break issue that affects the r1250rt and r1250gs models.bmw has issued a service bulletin, but has not selling these bike or issued a recall.new replacementcalipers have been order for 30 day now.new calipers will have different part number due to the original part having a faulting design as i understand it.
