Buying a used 2019 BMW K 1600 GT? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2019 BMW K 1600 GT has 3 recalls involving reverse gear overheating, transmission gear risk, and a rear suspension strut defect.

The record makes suspension repair history relevant alongside documentation for the two drivetrain recall subjects.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify completion of the reverse gear overheating recall for this VIN.
- Obtain documentation of the transmission gear recall repair.
- Confirm the strut recall repair and ask about recurring suspension symptoms.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any BMW dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
