BMW is recalling over 720,000 vehicles due to a potential fire hazard stemming from a faulty water pump electrical connector. The recall includes various models, such as the X1, X3, and X5, and is being conducted in collaboration with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). According to the NHTSA report, the water pumps in these vehicles may have insufficient sealing, allowing fluids to enter the electrical plug connector over time. This could lead to a short circuit and potentially a fire, although such incidents are rare. To address the issue, BMW will inspect and replace water pumps and plug connectors as needed. They will also install a shield to prevent any fluids from the positive crankcase ventilation system's intake air house from reaching the pump. Owners are expected to receive recall notifications in October and are advised to take their vehicles to an authorized BMW center for the free repairs.
