BMW i3

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. 

Safety Risk: 
This error does not affect vehicle safety. 

Corrective Actions: 
This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.

Issue: 
A problem with the electric motor electronics (EME) module could cause a sudden loss of power to the drive motor. 
Note: The 12-volt electrical system would still function, so power steering and braking would not be affected. 

Safety Risk: 
A sudden loss of motor power could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take the vehicle to a dealer to replace the electric motor electronics module.

On certain i3 REX models, a section of the fuel tank vent line could chafe against an adjacent ribbed wire protector. 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.

Certain vehicles may have been equipped with airbag inflators that do not meet specifications. This could cause affected airbags to fail to deploy properly in the event of a crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace affected airbag modules. Note: Depending on the vehicle in question, the front passenger, knee, side or curtain airbag modules may be affected.

Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 208 - Occupant Protection in Frontal Impacts.  The internal components of the passenger frontal airbag inflator may not have been assembled properly during manufacturing.  The passenger frontal airbag’s first stage (only) deployment could be affected, delaying the deployment timing of the second stage.  This could result in the right front occupant not receiving the intended protection from the frontal airbag in a low speed or out-of-position crash, increasing the risk of injury to the occupant where airbag deployment is warranted.  Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag module.
