Re call notice for front tyres

Postby Topcat » Sun Mar 08, 2015 12:47 pm

Had a recall letter on Sat for the K13. It refers to Continental tyres that ‘may be subject to a loss of pressure’.

BMW have said they will replace free of charge, doesn’t say anything about being fitted at a BMW dealer so I assume if you have one of the following you can get a new front tyre for nothing.

Front tyres only, 120/70ZR 17

ContiSportAttack
ContiSportAttack 2
ContiAttack SM
RaceAttack Comp. Soft
RaceAttack Comp. Medium
RaceAttack Comp. Endurance
RoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo W

If anyone wants more info I can scan and post the letter (I think)

BMW being quick off the mark then..... this was mentioned here in Aug last year when Conti issued the recall

I have already had the sport attack on my 996 replaced last sept. Cambrian Tyres were very swift to provide the replacement to my local dealer.

Ah, sorry about that. :oops:

As you say, good to see BMW on the ball as it was last year... :shock:

Doesn't effect us as don't have any fitted to our bikes but thought would post up.
