SITUATION
BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall (effective September 24, 2020) on certain Model Year 2020-2021 BMW Plug-In Hybrid-Electric (PHEV) vehicles that were produced between February 22, 2020 and September 17, 2020.
The high-voltage battery may not have been produced to specifications. When charging the battery, this could lead to a short-circuit and, in rare cases, a thermal event.
Please do not charge the vehicle’s high-voltage battery until further notice.
The Recall Notice and Q&A have been attached for further information.
CAUSE
On Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) models, the HV battery may not have been produced to specifications. When charging the battery to near its full state of charge, this could lead to a short-circuit and, in rare cases a thermal event.
CORRECTION
The vehicle will be inspected and, if necessary, HV module(s) will be replaced.
Customers must be informed of the issue, and of the customer service measure (in Procedure section) which must be carried out by the workshop appointment.
PROCEDURE
Important warning for working on the high-voltage systems on BMW Group vehicles:
Only properly trained personnel, who have passed all applicable technical training courses, should perform any maintenance or repairs on any Hybrid or Electric Vehicle. Work performed by unqualified persons may result in severe injury or damage to the vehicle.
Additional information is found in Repair Instruction 61 00… Observe safety instructions when handling electric vehicles.
The customer is to be informed of the following:
We request you not to charge the vehicle via cable, or to operate it only under the conditions described below.
For BMW 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, X3, X5:
Setting using the central display:
Note:
We request you not to charge the vehicle via the charging cable nor via regeneration while driving (especially in Sport mode).
Note:
Please do not use the manual gearshift or the sport shift on the selector lever and, if installed, the shift paddles on the steering wheel.
If these instructions are followed, the customer may continue to use the vehicle until the workshop visit.
Carrying out a service measure:
- Connect the vehicle to the diagnosis and carry out a Vehicle
- If a cell module is affected, ISTA sets the fault S
- Perform the associated test module in the test plan to determine the affected cell modules to be For PHEV with SP41, SP45 or SP44 High-voltage battery unit: Cell modules (ABL-DIT- AT6127_SP0XZM available with ISTA version 4.26.38, released Nov. 20, 2020).
- The test plan will identify the affected modules one at a time. Therefore, it is imperative to select NEXT all the way to the end of the test plan to ensure that all affected modules which are needed to complete the repair are displayed.
- If cell modules are prompted for replacement, replace the corresponding cell modules.
Follow the proper repair instructions for the specific vehicle; see REP 61 27 XXX “Removing and Replacing High-voltage Battery Cell Modules”.
- If a cell module exchange is not instructed, the vehicle is OK. -> No further measures required.
Note:
Please verify that the replacement cell modules you receive are the ones you ordered and were boxed correctly. The part numbers received must cross-reference to the EPC part# POS (positive) or NEG, and install them in the correct position in the high-voltage battery as per the illustration below.
Note:
The replacement cell modules voltages need to be balanced prior to installation, as per the repair instructions (Preliminary work – Adjust charging voltages of the replacement module(s) to remaining modules). This operation is included in the allocated time below.
Note:
Please make sure to update your high-voltage equipment (EOS tester and Deutronics charger) to the latest software.
Note:
We will require the ISTA Operations Report from the test session (ISTA Protocol) to be attached to the Recall IDS ticket to verify the correct of modules are ordered.
Note:
The diagnosis of the cell modules is only available with the ISTA version 4.26.38.
Note:
A TC case is NOT necessary to order the replacement HV battery cell modules as per this campaign.
Note:
The date in the serial number of the High-voltage module can be displayed in two different formats:
Safety Recall 20V-601
High-Voltage Battery
Model Year 2020-2021
PHEV [BMW 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, i8, X3 SAV, X5 SAV / MINI Countryman]
Issue Date: 09/24/2020
Last Update: 12/23/2020
Q1. Which BMW Group models in the US are potentially affected by this Safety Recall?
Certain Plug-In Hybrid-Electric Vehicles (PHEV), specifically Model Year 2020-2021 BMW 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, i8, X3 SAV, X5 SAV, and MINI Countryman models in the US, produced between February and September 2020, are potentially affected.
Q2. What is the specific issue?
On PHEV models, the high-voltage battery may not have been produced to specifications. When charging the battery, this could lead to a short-circuit and, in rare cases a thermal event.
Q3. Why are other models / vehicles not included in this Safety Recall?
Other models have been produced with a High-Voltage battery that has been produced to specifications.
Q4. Can I continue to drive my vehicle?
Yes. However, drive in standard mode only, do not use sport mode.
If you are not the only driver of this vehicle, please advise all other drivers of this important information.
Q5. Can I charge my vehicle?
No, do not plug in your vehicle for charging.
Q6. How did BMW Group become aware of the issue?
BMW Group became aware of the issue through our quality control procedures.
Q7. How will I be informed of this Safety Recall?
Letters will be mailed to owners in October via First Class mail advising them of this Safety Recall and, if the remedy is available, requesting them to schedule an appointment with an authorized BMW center. If the remedy is not available at that time, a follow-up letter will be sent when the remedy becomes available.
Owners can locate their nearest authorized BMW center at www.bmwusa.com/dealer. To ensure BMW has the most recent contact and vehicle information, owners should register their vehicle at www.bmwusa.com/myBMW. Registration is free, and will give them access to factory initiated campaigns and other information specific to their BMW.
Q8. How will my vehicle be repaired?
The battery modules will be checked and, if necessary, the affected module(s) will be replaced for free and take several hours.
