- Consequence:
- If the rear reflex reflectors are obscured from view, it can increase the risk of a crash.
- Correction:
- Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will install reflectors on the cases or for the case mounts, an additional bracket with rear reflex reflectors, free of charge. the recall began october 16, 2017. owners may contact bmw customer service at 1-800-525-7417.

- Consequence:
- If other drivers cannot easily see the turn signals, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

- Consequence:
- Obscured reflectors may reduce the visibility of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Correction:
