4 recalls across 5 model years
The BMW S1000 RR has 4 recalls covering 2010–2020 model years, with the most serious being a 2020 model year issue where oil cooler hoses can detach from the oil pipes, dripping oil onto the rear tire and creating a significant crash risk.
The 2020 model year also has a brake light recall where the light flashes rather than stays steady during hard braking, which can confuse following drivers about the urgency of the stop. Going back to the 2011–2013 model years, the fuel pump can crack during operation and leak fuel, which can ignite and cause a fire. The 2010–2011 model years are subject to a related fuel pump concern on vehicles that received a prior repair under an earlier recall but did not subsequently have the fuel pump replaced; those units can still leak fuel and carry the same fire risk.
