See attached document for complaint. I am writing in reference to the recall on my 2013 BMW-328xi. The VIN number is. The recall is for the water pump electrical connector. My water pump failed may 2024. I went to an independent repair service center that specializes in BMW repair, which in turn was the closest service center to where the vehicle broke down. I paid out of pocket for the repair. Now there is a recall on this part, I would appreciate reimbursement for the charges. I am enclosing a copy of the invoice.
Recall was issued in August 2024 and there is yet to be a fix/remedy.
Dropped off my BMW on June 17 for a water pump recall 24v-608 for wiring harness connector issue and the dealer did indeed discover corrosion and damage to the water pump which could cause a thermal event or a fire. However, they repaired 1 single strand of wire by replacing a pin and not the entire connector or the water pump. Furthermore, I was charged $197 for that damaged wire saying even though the wire was corroded, I had to pay to repair that to do the recall which was to put a plastic sheath over the wiring.

It has been over a year since I received the first recall notice for my vehicle, and I am continuing to receive notices from BMW that state there is no remedy available. This recall has the potential to create premature depreciating damage to my financial asset as well as serious safety risks myself and my family. I would like to know what kind of alternative remedy BMW has to offer me, since no repair has been offered in a timely manner.
