Buying a used 2020 BMW R 1250 R? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2020 BMW R 1250 R has 3 recalls in this group. One concerns a brake light that may flash instead of displaying its intended signal, and two concern missing or unclear brake-fluid information on caps, including an aftermarket cap.

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 brake-light recall completion and demonstrate brake-light operation.
- Confirm applicable original and aftermarket brake-fluid cap recalls were completed.
- Ask about electrical faults and obtain related repair records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any BMW dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
