M2 Recall

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
October 28th, 2020
A damaged connection between the fuel line and the fuel rail could lead to a fuel leak and, in the presence of an ignition source, increase the risk of a fire.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V666000
Components: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
Summary
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020-2021 M2 Coupe and 2020 M4 Coupe vehicles. Fuel injectors may have been installed without a damping component which is used to reduce vibration. If a damping component is not present, vibration will increase at the connection between the fuel line and the fuel rail, which over time, can result in damage at the connection.
Remedy
BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel injectors and if a damping component is missing, the injectors and the fuel rail will be replaced, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 21, 2020. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
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.safercar.gov.

Man, I hope not. Because of Covid, my dealer likes to spray the interior with this goo. It gets all over the mirrors, the windows, the switchgear. I would rather not have to take the car in. Hoping my car isn't affected as it was built in 2019.

I hope there's a way to check and confirm who's affected by VIN.

If you have Connected Drive app it will let you know once the Vin# is reconciled.

Thank you.
FYI, my 2020 that was built in 2019 (one of the first ones, i got the car in my hands on 4/25/20) was not affected by this recall.
Edit, went to the M VIN Decoder, my car was built on 2019-03-13.

I searched by VIN here, https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls, is this where you lookup?

You mean SaferCar App? I went to the website and under recall entered my VIN and it stated no recalls.

As mentioned earlier, once BMW reconciles the VINs, the app will notify you if affected.

This is an announcement for a recall coming 12/21.

The BMW Connect app links out to a website that you put the VIN into. Just download the app and link it to your car.

My car is at the port right now, I wonder if they'll just take care of this recall while it's there.

no recalls as of yet using my vin. honestly any good service advisor will inform you on a safety recall as soon as they fun a preliminary diagnostic. I'm just under 1K miles so headed to dealer soon anyways.
