BMW F 800 GS US 2009 Safety Review #10289438

BMW F 800 GS US 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 13, 2009.BMW F 800 GS US 2009, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with SUSPENSION . I HAVE A 2009 BMW F800GS. I READ ABOUT CATASTROPHIC BEARING FAILURES HAPPENING ON OTHER F800GS REAR WHEELS AND CHECKED MY BEARING BY HAND WHEN I HAD THE REAR WHEEL OFF AT 8000 MILES FOR TIRE REPLACEMENT. THE BEARING ON THE ROTOR SIDE OF THE WHEEL WAS VERY NOTCHY AND IT WOULD NOT ROLL IN A CLOCKWISE ROTATION UNLESS MUCH FORCE WAS APPLIED. THE BEARING TYPICALLY RUNS IN A COUNTER CLOCKWISE ROTATION IF LOOKING AT THE REAR WHEEL FROM THE LEFT SIDE. THE BMW DEALER IN LAS VEGAS AGREED THAT THE BEARING WAS BAD AND REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. EXPERTS HAVE EXAMINED OTHER HUBS FROM THIS SAME MODEL AND YEAR AND HAVE DECLARED THAT THE BORE IN THE HUB FOR THE BEARING IS TOO SMALL FOR WHICH CAUSES TOO MUCH CRUSH AND WILL DAMAGE ANY SUBSEQUENT REPLACEMENT BEARINGS THAT ARE PUT INTO THE HUB OVER TIME. BMW MUST BE MADE TO REPLACE OR MACHINE THE HUB SO THAT THE BEARINGS DO NOT FAIL. SOMEONE WILL BE SERIOUSLY INJURED IF THIS BEARING HAS CATASTROPHIC FAILURE AT SPEED. *TR.Mileage was 8002 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WB10229089Z. Bmw F 800 Gs Us 2009 problem was reported in LAS VEGAS, NV. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

Question? My door lock do not work and my battery is dead. I was told there is a positive connection beneath the car by the passenger side, which will give enough power to unlock the doors if hook up to a power pack. I am a owner of a 2000 4.4i X5
