To be exact, this recall for the electric auxiliary water pump installed in vehicles with V8 and V12 turbocharged engines:

It affects 2,606 550i & 550xis produced between March and October 2010.

It is a must that each one who owned a BMW car must be cautious enough to have a regular car check so that they would ensure that their cars are running safeAll cars were made between 2008 and 2011. The proof is here: BMW announces recall over potential fire hazard.
