Has your BMW been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A BMW dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

1994 BMW R1100 recalls, newest first

June 28, 1994NHTSA 94V119000716 vehicles potentially affected

Suspension › Front

Summary
Certain suspension components can loosen when the motorcycle is ridden hard in rough off-road conditions. The right-hand bearing pin in the rear swinging arm and also the lower flange nut on the front strut can both loosen.
Consequence
This can result in reduction of the motorcycle's dynamic stability resulting in loss of control of the motorcycle.
Remedy
Dealers will remove the bearing pin, apply a stronger adhesive and reassemble with an increased torque specification. The flange nut on the front strut will be replaced with a self-tightening nut.

Electrical system › 12V/24V/48V battery › Cables

Summary
The positive battery cable connector may be attached to the positive terminal extension at an angle which may cause contact between the connector and the battery support causing an electrical short.
Consequence
If an electrical short exists, electrical current can beconducted from the battery support, through the front brake lines to the frame.on motorcycles with anti-lock brakes (ABS) this may 1) cause the brake fluid toincrease in temperature which could impair front brake performance; and 2)melt a hole in the fuel tank causing a leak which could result in a fire. Onmotorcycles without ABS, damage to the circuitry in the electronic enginecontrol unit may occur, causing an irregular-running engine.
Remedy
Remove the positive terminal extension and attach the positive battery cable connector directly to the battery terminal with a bolt.
