BMW Issues Stop-Sale Order For All Petrol-Powered Motorcycles in North America
- BMW Motorrad voluntarily stopped selling gas-powered motorcycles in North America due to a material-related quality issue.
- The stop-sale is unrelated to safety concerns, and existing owners are encouraged to continue using their motorcycles.
- BMW's electric CE 04 model remains unaffected by voluntary stop-sale.
BMW Motorrad has voluntarily issued a stop-sale order for all its Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) motorcycles in North America. The decision stems from a quality issue related to a specific material used in the evaporative system of these motorcycles. The issue is likely connected to emission equipment, and thus the recall doesn’t affect BMW’s electric models. Also, this measure is not linked to any safety concerns, and existing owners can continue riding their vehicles without hesitation.

The concern arose from a recent quality analysis, prompting BMW to conduct a thorough evaluation of the material and its adherence to specifications.
