Current owner of a 2015 BMW X1 bought in Feb 2025. Was informed by the car dealer at that time there is currently an unresolved important safety recall campaign for NHTSA Recall Number 24V608000 - "Water Pump Connector May Short Circuit" opened back in August 2024. I reached out to the local BMW dealer for a status update if the remedy was available and they indicated a remedy is still not available. They had me contact BMW Customer Relations for a better status update. BMW Customer Relations indicated the remedy is still not available for this recall and no ETA. They only told me to keep checking back with my BMW dealer -- which I have done numerous times over several weeks. This recall has been out since August 2024 and it is well beyond a reasonable amount of time for a remedy to this recall. This is an urgent enough issue that needs to be resolved now to avoid any fire risks.
