NHTSA Complaint #11365595 — 2008 BMW 335XI

I WRITE REQUESTING THAT MY VEHICLE 2008 BMW 335XI VIN NUMBER [XXX] BE TAGGED/LISTED AS NEEDING THE REVISED SIB 13 01 20 -EMISSIONS RECALL CAMPAIGN 10E-A02 ISSUED BY BMW ON 01/17/2020. THIS REVISED 2020 BMW INTERNAL AMENDED RECALL INSTRUCTIONS REQUIRE REPLACEMENT OF ALL ORIGINAL FUEL INJECTORS. IT AMENDS WHAT WAS BEING DONE SINCE THE ORIGINAL RECALL SIB 13 14 20 FROM THE YEAR 2011 WHICH REQUIRED ONLY INDIVIDUAL FAILING INJECTORS BE REPLACED. BACK IN 2011, THE BMW SERVICE CENTER THAT WORKED ON MY CAR, REPLACED TWO (2) FAILING INJECTORS AND REMOVED THE CAR FROM THE RECALL LIST PREMATURELY. THAT WAS WRONG BECAUSE FUEL INJECTORS ARE ?INDIVIDUAL? PIECES OF EQUIPMENT, AND MY CAR NEEDS SIX (6) OF THEM. IN THE YEAR 2013, BMW REPLACED THREE (3) FUEL INJECTORS IN A DIFFERENT BANK UNDER WARRANTY. MAKING IT THAT WAS STILL ONE MORE ORIGINAL INJECTOR LEFT (INJECTOR NUMBER #5) IN THE CAR. THIS REMAINING INJECTOR #5 IN MY CAR IS AN ORIGINAL INJECTOR AND SHOULD STILL BE SUBJECT TO THE RECALL. I CALLED BMW USA ASKING FOR THE UPDATED 01/17/2020 RECALL BE COMPLETED ON MY CAR AND THEY DENIED MY REQUEST STATING THEY HAVE PROPERLY COMPLETED THE ORIGINAL RECALL BACK IN 2011. I HAD THEM REVIEW THE RECORDS WHICH INDICATE THAT BACK IN 2011 DURING THE ORIGINAL RECALL SIB 13 14 20 ONLY FUEL INJECTORS 4 & 6 WERE REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE INJECTORS. INJECTOR NUMBER 5 IS STILL ORIGINAL AND IT IS SUBJECT TO THE 01/17/2020 SIB 13 01 20 -EMISSIONS RECALL CAMPAIGN 10E-A02 ISSUED BY BMW. CURRENTLY, THIS FUEL INJECTOR LEAKS FUEL DOWN INTO THE CYLINDER HEAD AND CREATES POLLUTION. I AM ATTACHING SERVICE RECORDS. I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING THE TIME TO PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AND HAVE BMW DO THE RIGHT THING BY REPLACING THIS OLD ORIGINAL INJECTOR THEY LEFT BEHIND BACK IN 2011. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR LOOKING INTO THIS. --- [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
