Over time, this chaffing could lead to the fuel tank vent line wearing through and leaking. Due to enclosed engine compartment of this vehicle and elevated underhood temperatures, this could increase the risk of a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a clip between the fuel tank vent line and the adjacent ribbed wire protector to prevent contact, and the fuel tank vent line will be inspected and replaced as necessary.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":null,"part_number":null,"units":688,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Système d'alimentation en carburant","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Dans certains véhicules i3 REX, une partie de la conduite de mise à l'air libre du réservoir de carburant pourrait s'user par frottement contre un couvre-fils nervuré adjacent. Au fil du temps, cette usure par frottement pourrait percer la conduite de mise à l'air libre et provoquer une fuite. En raison du compartiment moteur fermé de ce véhicule et des températures élevées sous le capot, ce problème pourrait augmenter les risques de déclenchement d'un feu pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront installer une bride entre la conduite de mise à l'air libre du réservoir de carburant et le couvre-fils nervuré adjacent afin d'empêcher tout contact, ainsi qu'inspecter cette conduite de mise à l'air libre et la remplacer au besoin."},"vehicles":[{"year":2014,"make":"BMW","model":"i3","vehicle_id":"2014_bmw_i3","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2015,"make":"BMW","model":"i3","vehicle_id":"2015_bmw_i3","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2016,"make":"BMW","model":"i3","vehicle_id":"2016_bmw_i3","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2017,"make":"BMW","model":"i3","vehicle_id":"2017_bmw_i3","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/2017068"}
