SITUATION
BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall (effective February 12, 2021) on a small number of Model Year 2021 BMW vehicles that were produced between September 9, 2020 and January 13, 2021.
This is an expansion of recall 20V-761 that was launched in early December 2020.
The 48-Volt battery cable connections to the starter / generator (SGR) may not have been assembled to specifications. Over time, this could lead to increased resistance at the connection(s) and, in rare cases, a thermal event.
CORRECTION
Check the M8 flange nuts and cable connections on the SGR. If necessary, replace the flange nut and torque to spec.
PROCEDURE
Check the positive (1) and negative (2) cables for play at the mounting lugs on the SGR.
If the connections are tight and the cables cannot be moved by hand– No further action is necessary
If there is play in the connection to the SGR –
Deactivate the 48 V electrical system (Repair instruction REP-TAT-P-6124-18-B47_48V)
Remove and discard the flange nut on the B+ or B- cable
Install a new flange nut so that it’s carefully started by hand to avoid cross-threading Torque to 19 Nm
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 the claim.
| Part Number | Description | Quantity |
| 07 14 3413174 | Flange nut (rounds to 10) | Up to 2 |

20V-761
Amendment
Additional Chronology
The field continue to be monitored. In December 2020, two more incidents were reported.
Inspections of these incidents / vehicles showed characteristics that were similar to previously inspected vehicles in which the 48-Volt battery positive cable connection to the starter-generator was suspect. The fastening nut did not appear to be seated properly on the starter-generator assembly’s bolt.
Further reviews of vehicle manufacturing records indicated that the two incident vehicles had been sent to an assembly plant rework station, as had vehicles which were identified and were previously reported. Upon further review, it has been determined that a number of additional vehicles were subject to a rework process in which the 48-Volt battery positive cable connection to the starter-generator was suspect.
On February 10, 2021, BMW decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall.
BMW has not received any reports, nor is otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.
