This could allow permanent activation of the fuel filter heater, including activation on a parked vehicle with the ignition in the OFF position, which could drain the battery.  A discharged battery would prevent engine start-up.  In certain cases the heater unit could overheat, which could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel filter heater assembly.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":null,"part_number":null,"units":590,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Système d'alimentation en carburant","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules à moteur diesel, le dispositif de chauffage du filtre à carburant (utilisé pour réchauffer le diesel lorsque le véhicule fonctionne par temps froid) pourrait mal fonctionner. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que le dispositif de chauffage soit actionné en permanence, y compris dans le cas d'un véhicule stationné dont la clé de contact est en position OFF, ce qui pourrait vider la batterie. Une batterie à plat empêcherait le démarrage du moteur. Dans certains cas, le dispositif de chauffage pourrait surchauffer, ce qui pourrait mettre le feu au véhicule, endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le dispositif de chauffage du filtre à carburant."},"vehicles":[{"year":2009,"make":"BMW","model":"X5","vehicle_id":"2009_bmw_x5","match":"exact","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/2011310"}
