4 recalls across 1 model year
The BMW R1300 GS has 4 recalls, all affecting the 2024 model year, with the most serious being an improperly sealed starter relay that allows moisture to enter, causing the relay to overheat and melt, which creates a fire risk.
The starter relay issue required a second round of repairs after the initial dealer fix proved ineffective, so 2024 owners who had this recall addressed early should confirm the follow-up repair was also completed. On the accessories side, 2024 models equipped with a BMW Motorrad accessory side case have a latch that can appear secured while not being fully engaged, allowing the lid to open and detach while riding and become a hazard for other road users. As with the electrical issue, an earlier repair attempt for the side case latch was found to be insufficient, and a second repair was issued to address it.
