AFFECTED VEHICLES

Vehicles which require this Recall Campaign to be completed will show it as “Open” when checked either in AIR, the “Service Menu” of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System), ISPA Next or Warranty Vehicle Inquiry.

On the models F97, F98, G01, G02 and G20 without the following option codes/SAs SA230, SA5AL, SA802, SA807, SA8AA, SA8LA and SA8R1:

– Only the driver’s safety belt buckle is affected. There is no need to drive these vehicles to perform testing.

If the vehicle is equipped with the above-listed options:

  • The buckles on the driver’s and passenger’s sides both have to be checked
  • Refer to Procedure Step 4
  • The vehicle will need to be briefly driven with a passenger so that the passenger buckle is effectively checked

 

SITUATION

BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall (effective March 13, 2020) on certain Model Year 2020 BMW vehicles that were produced between January 15, 2020 and March 4, 2020.  The issue involves the hall sensor within the driver and/or passenger front seat safety belt buckle.

 

CAUSE

Within the safety belt, the hall effect sensor for the safety belt buckle status may read incorrectly.

 

CORRECTION

Perform a stress test on each front seat’s safety belt buckle.

If the hall sensor fails to remain within 3 mm of the underside of the safety belt buckle after the test, the buckle assembly must be replaced.

 

PROCEDURE

Perform a stress test on the safety belt buckle.

  1. Place the front seat height at the lowest position.
  2. Bend the buckle head 5 times towards the seat cushion to create a 90-degree bend of the buckle cable.

The safety belt is shown latched into the buckle but is not necessary. The belt end simply increases leverage.

Inspect the bottom of the buckle. If needed for better access, bend the buckle forward. The hall switch connection is at the arrow.

Verify visually if the hall switch remains in the correct position. Movement UP TO 3 mm is acceptable.

The pictures below show acceptable movement in green.

If there is a 3 mm or larger visual gap between the hall switch assembly and the buckle, replace the part.

The pictures below show unacceptable movement in red.

  1. Perform the test on the other front seat buckle.

 

Side-by-side comparison

The following images show the difference between a good (i.O. or OK) and no good (marked as n.i.O., NG, or NOK) part.

After bending the safety belt buckle, the slipped-out hall sensor remains on a NOK safety belt buckle about 3 mm outside and will no longer sit flush, even if the safety belt buckle stretches again.

  1. Verify visually if the hall switch remains in the correct position.

The gap must be smaller than 3 mm.

If there is no gap, or the gap is smaller than 3 mm: Turn ignition on. The safety belt warning light in the instrument cluster (aka Kombi) should be illuminated:

  • Fasten safety belt

Pay attention to the warning light in the instrument cluster-

  • The safety belt warning light must turn off as soon as the safety belt is fastened.

Repeat the fasten safety belt procedure 5 times. Keep the ignition on.

If the warning light stays on after latching the safety belt any time within these 5 cycles, replace the safety belt latch.

To perform the check of the passenger safety belt latch, perform the procedure while driving above 15 mph with an occupant in the passenger seat performing the test.

Attachments are enclosed for the models’ AIR repair procedures as guidelines. Refer to AIR for the latest repair versions and tightening torque values.

 

PARTS INFORMATION

Only use and invoice the part numbers below that apply.

Performing a part number look-up in ETK (EPC) by VIN or model in place of using/invoicing the following part numbers may result with the wrong part numbers being invoiced and installed, this could delay the payment of claim.

IMPORTANTE RETIRADA POR MOTIVOS DE SEGURIDAD

Repuesto disponible

Este aviso se aplica a su vehículo, [INSERT VIN]

Campaña de retirada n.º 20V-164: Sensor de la hebilla del cinturón de seguridad en asientos delanteros

Mayo de 2020

Estimado propietario o arrendatario de un vehículo BMW:

Le enviamos este aviso en virtud de la National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (Ley Nacional de Seguridad de Tránsito y Vehículos). BMW AG ha determinado que algunos vehículos X3/X3M SAV y X4/X4M SAC de los modelos de la Serie 3 y Serie 8 (incluida la M8) de BMW del año 2020 tienen un defecto relacionado con la seguridad de los vehículos motorizados. Según nuestros registros, usted es propietario de un vehículo que podría estar afectado.

 

¿Por qué nos ponemos en contacto con usted?

Nos complace informarle que estamos listos para realizar esta retirada. Si no se ha hecho la retirada, comuníquese de inmediato con el centro autorizado de BMW para programar una cita. Visite www.bmwusa.com/dealer para localizar el centro de BMW más cercano.

 

¿Qué podría suceder?

Las hebillas de los cinturones de seguridad en los asientos delanteros, del conductor y del pasajero, tienen un sensor para detectar si están correctamente abrochadas. Este sensor puede detectar erróneamente que un cinturón abrochado no está abrochado, lo que, en caso de accidente, podría alterar los niveles de activación del airbag o del pretensor, y aumentar el riesgo de lesiones.

Si, por una advertencia visual o auditiva, nota que el sistema de recordatorio del cinturón de seguridad está activo cuando los cinturones de los asientos delanteros están abrochados, su vehículo podría estar teniendo este problema. Comuníquese con un centro autorizado de BMW para que haga esta retirada de seguridad lo antes posible. Si usted no es la única persona que conduce este vehículo, comparta esta información importante con todos los demás conductores y pasajeros.

 

¿Qué hará BMW?

Se inspeccionarán las hebillas de los cinturones de seguridad de los asientos delanteros y, si es necesario, se reemplazarán sin cargo, lo que podría llevar aproximadamente una hora. Podría haber algunas opciones en caso de que sea un inconveniente traer el vehículo para repararlo, si fuera necesario. Comuníquese con su centro local de BMW para ver qué opciones hay disponibles.

 

¿Qué ocurre si no soy el propietario actual de este vehículo?

Puede actualizar su información de contacto registrándose en https://www.bmwusa.com/mybmw. Para cambiar la titularidad del vehículo, comuníquese con el BMW Customer Relations and Services (Servicio de Atención al Cliente de BMW) llamando al 1-800-831-1117. Si usted es arrendador del vehículo, las reglamentaciones federales exigen que reenvíe este aviso a su arrendatario en un plazo de diez días.

 

¿Qué debo hacer si tengo alguna pregunta o algún problema?

Para ver las últimas actualizaciones de esta retirada, visite www.bmwusa.com/recall. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre esta retirada, comuníquese con el centro autorizado de BMW. Si necesita asistencia adicional, comuníquese con el BMW Customer Relations and Services (Servicio de Atención al Cliente de BMW) llamando al 1-800-525-7417 o por correo electrónico a 30TCustomerRelations@bmwusa.com.

Si el centro de BMW no puede resolver el defecto sin cargo o en un plazo razonable, puede notificar al administrador de la National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (Administración Nacional de Seguridad de Tránsito en Carreteras), 1200 New Jersey Ave., S.E., Washington, DC 20590; llamar a la Vehicle Safety Hotline (Línea gratuita directa de seguridad vehicular) al 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), o visitar https://www.safercar.gov.

Le aseguramos que nos importa su seguridad y le pedimos sinceras disculpas si esta retirada le causa algún inconveniente. Recomendamos que usted y sus pasajeros usen el cinturón de seguridad en todo momento.

Atentamente.
