The oil thermostat housing is located in the oil pump intermediate flange.  Should the cover loosen or detach, the entire volume of oil could escape from the engine in a relatively short time. In addition to significant engine damage, oil could travel along the engine cover and ultimately contact the rear tire.  This could result in loss of traction and possible loss of vehicle control.  Correction:  Snap ring will be inspected to make sure that it is fully seated.  If the snap ring is not fully seated, the complete fuel pump intermediate flange will be replaced.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"RC2000-219","part_number":null,"units":202,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Moteur","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, il se peut que l'anneau élastique qui retient le couvercle de l'élément du thermostat à l'huile sur le boîtier n'ait pas été correctement installé dans son logement lors du montage. Le boîtier du thermostat se trouve sur le flasque intermédiaire de la pompe à l'huile.  Si le couvercle venait à prendre du jeu et à se détacher, tout l'huile pourrait s'échapper du moteur en très peu de temps. En plus des dommages importants au moteur causés par la fuite, l'huile peut s'écouler le long du capot moteur et éclabousser le pneu arrière, ce qui pourrait entraîner une diminution de l'adhérence et provoquer une perte de contrôle.  Correction :  On devra inspecter l'anneau élastique et s'assurer qu'il est bien installé dans son logement. Si ce n'est pas le cas, il faudra remplacer tout le flasque intermédiaire de la pompe à l'huile."},"vehicles":[{"year":1998,"make":"BMW","model":"K1200RS","vehicle_id":"1998_bmw_k-1200-rs","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1999,"make":"BMW","model":"K1200RS","vehicle_id":"1999_bmw_k-1200-rs","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"K1200RS","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_k-1200-r","match":"base","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2000219"}
