Summary
On certain motorcycles, there could be a problem with the routing of the integral anti-lock-brake system (iabs) sensor cable if service has been performed on the motorcycle, for example, a front tire change.
Consequence
The sensor cable can come into contact with, and rub against, the front brake disk. If the chafing becomes severe, it is possible to lose the ABS function increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and attach an additional retaining clip to the iabs sensor cable free of charge. The recall began September 23, 2005. Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-831-1117.
Notes
Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236; (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Vehicles covered

As listed by NHTSA. A recall usually covers only some vehicles of each model and year, often a production date range.

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.
