2011 BMW 1 SERIES Fuel Propulsion System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1236004
Internal NHTSA #	10788317
Manufacurer	BMW of North America, LLC
Brand	BMW
Model	1 SERIES
Model Year	2011
File date	03/11/15
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	This vehicle has the same n54 engine and same fuel pump that was covered under recall for failing fuel pumps on the 2007-2010 bmw cars. It was the only bmw vehicle that used this motor in 2011 and such was left out of the original recall. There were only about 600 of the vehicles made for the usa so i suppose that might also be why they were omitted. Bmw has informed us that they cannot cover it under the recall since it was not included even though it has the same motor and fuel pump that was recalled in previous years. This car has experienced a fuel pump failure while driving on a city street in traffic. The ecu went into "reduced power mode" and the car could not accelerate past 15 mph in fast moving traffic creating an unsafe condition and a near collision. The car also has the long crank time and engine error code p0087 which is normally experienced with the fuel pump failure. The 2011, 1-series m coupe should be added to the list of vehicles covered under the original recall and bmw should add their extended warranty to the fuel pump like they did the other recalled cars.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
