NOTE (Customers who live in the state of California)
The state of California requires the completion of Safety Recalls / Service Campaigns on emission related parts prior to vehicle registration renewal. In addition, the State requires that every vehicle must pass an emission test (SMOG Check) every two years and before it is sold. Without the completion of this FREE Safety Recall, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) will not allow your vehicle to be registered. State of California Regulations require Toyota to provide the Department of Motor Vehicles with a record of all vehicles that have not had the Safety Recall completed.
Your Toyota dealer will provide you with a Vehicle Emissions Recall Proof of Correction Form after the campaign has been completed. Please ensure you retain this form, because the DMV may require that you supply proof that the campaign has been completed during your vehicle registration renewal process.

Chronology :
On September 14, 2020, a non-US field report indicated that a 2019 BMW Z4 experienced a fuel leak. An engineering review was initiated, and the fuel tank supplier was contacted.
A review of supplier production records indicated that a deviation in the welding process had occurred when joining (welding) the two halves of the fuel tank. The review indicated that a specific process parameter involving the heating time of the tank halves may not have met and, therefore, could lead to an out-of-specification weld condition between the two tank halves.
Vehicle assembly information and supplier production records were reviewed to determine the number and production dates of potentially affected vehicles.
On November 5, 2020, BMW Group decided to conduct a voluntary recall for potentially affected vehicles.
BMW Group has not received any reports, nor is otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.

Todos los ocupantes deben salir cuidadosamente del vehículo y moverse a una ubicación segura lejos del tráfico. No continúe conduciendo el vehículo. Comuníquese inmediatamente con su concesionario Toyota el cual coordinará recoger el vehículo. ¿Qué pasa si vive en California y no se ha realizado este Retiro de Seguridad? El estado de California requiere que se completen las Campañas de Retiro de Seguridad / Campañas de Servicio sobre piezas relacionadas con emisiones antes de renovar el registro del vehículo. Además, el estado requiere que cada vehículo debe pasar una prueba de emisiones (Verificación de SMOG) cada dos años y antes de que se venda. Si no se completa esta Campaña de Retiro de Seguridad GRATUITA, la Junta de Recursos de Aire de California (CARB, por sus siglas en Inglés) no permitirá que se registre su vehículo. Los reglamentos del estado de California requieren que Toyota proporcione al Departamento de vehículos de motor un registro de todos los vehículos a los que no se les ha completado la Campaña de Retiro de Seguridad. Su concesionario Toyota le proporcionará un formulario de comprobante de corrección del Retiro de Seguridad de Emisiones de Vehículos después de que se complete la campaña. Asegúrese de conservar este formulario, porque el DMV puede requerir que usted proporcione un comprobante de que se completó la campaña durante el proceso de renovación del registro de su vehículo. ¿Qué pasa si usted no es el propietario o el operador de este vehículo? Si usted arrienda el vehículo, la ley federal requiere que todo arrendador de vehículo que reciba esta notificación del retiro de seguridad debe enviar una copia del aviso al arrendatario en menos de diez días. Si conoce al propietario u operador actual, sea tan amable de enviarle esta carta. Si quisiera actualizar la propiedad de su vehículo o la información de contacto, por favor visite https://www.toyota.com/recall/update-info-toyota. Necesitará el número de identificación del vehículo (VIN) completo de 17 dígitos para ingresar la nueva información. Si cree que el concesionario o Toyota no ha cumplido o no ha podido remediar el defecto en un plazo razonable o sin cargo, puede enviar una queja al Administrador, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue S.E., Washington, D.C. 20590, o llamar a la línea directa sin costo de los vehículos al 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), o visite http://www.safercar.gov.

Condition The fuel tank in the subject vehicles may not have been welded properly and could leak fuel. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can result in the risk of a fire.

During supplier production, a welding operation may not have been performed according to specifications. Over time, and due to factors such as road vibration and/or swelling of the fuel tank when full, this weld could start to separate. FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : If the weld starts to separate, a fuel leak could occur. Fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire.

An engineering review was initiated, and the fuel tank supplier was contacted. A review of supplier production records indicated that a deviation in the welding process had occurred when joining (welding) the two halves of the fuel tank. The review indicated that a specific process parameter involving the heating time of the tank halves may not have met and, therefore, could lead to an out-ofspecification weld condition between the two tank halves. Vehicle assembly information and supplier production records were reviewed to determine the number and production dates of potentially affected vehicles. On November 5, 2020, BMW Group decided to conduct a voluntary recall for potentially affected vehicles. BMW Group has not received any reports, nor is otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.
