The NHTSA has advised over 720,000 BMW owners to park their vehicles outdoors due to fire risks linked to a water pump issue. BMW announced a recall for 720,796 cars in the U.S. after discovering that an improperly sealed electrical connector could cause short circuits and fires, even when the engine is off. This problem has previously led to a recall in 2024, but further repairs are now deemed necessary. BMW is aware of ten fire incidents related to this issue post-repair. The recall affects various models produced between 2012 and 2017, including Series 3, Series 5, and X1. Until repairs are completed, owners are urged to avoid parking in garages or near buildings.
