What is wrong
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2024 Rolls Royce Spectre electric vehicles. The ground connection cable between the front electric motor and the vehicle chassis may contain adhesive residue which can increase electrical resistance and cause an insufficient ground.
What can happen
An insufficient electrical ground can increase the risk of electric shock during service work, and also increase the risk of a fire.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect the ground cable connection and remove any residue as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 29, 2024. Owners may contact Rolls Royce customer service at 1-877-877-3735.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
