The defect
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain BMW Dealer Service Part Oil Filters designed to fit S1000RR, M1000RR/R/XR, HP4 (Race) motorcycles, and with part number 11427721779-04. The vibration frequencies from certain high-revving four-cylinder motorcycle engines can cause the oil filter to unscrew during riding.
The risk
A loose or detached oil filter can allow oil to escape from the engine and contact the rear tire or road surface, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect and replace the oil filter as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 14, 2025. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
