## Canada (Transport Canada), as of 2026-10-19

- [2021056](/recalls/tc/2021056.md), 2021-02-09: Fuel System. Issue: On certain motorcycles, the fuel pump flange could crack. If this happens, fuel could leak while the engine is running. Note: This is an expansion of recall 16 002 20 \(014\) \(Transport Canada Recall No. 2020\-437\).  Safety Risk: A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.  Corrective Actions: BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to replace the fuel pump and auxiliary fuel pump \(if equipped\) with an improved version.
- [2014485](/recalls/tc/2014485.md), 2014-10-30: Tires. On certain motorcycles equipped with a Continental ContiSportAttack or ContiSportAttack2 front tire, a separation may develop between the thread, belt and carcass. This could  potentially result in rapid air loss and/or tire failure, which could affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace affected tires.
- [2012334](/recalls/tc/2012334.md), 2012-10-04: Brakes. On certain motorcycles, vibration, particularly on a long ride at constant high engine rpm and on engine overrun at high rpm, can, under certain circumstances, cause foaming of the brake fluid in the reservoir of the front brakes.  This foaming may cause air to enter into the brake system, which can severely diminish the braking efficiency of the front brakes.  Extended stopping distance may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will install a screen insert into the front brake fluid reservoir.
