Some 223 examples of the 2014 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/i8/">BMW i8</a>, built between May 16, 2014 and September 16, 2014, are being recalled over a potential fuel leak. A bolt used to secure a ground cable from the chassis structure to the fuel tank could have been welded improperly; if so, gas might leak from the tank.<br />
<br />
The recall began in November, so if any of you owner types aren't aware by now, you can take your i8 to the dealer for replacement of the fuel tank if necessary. A bulletin from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/nhtsa/">National Highway Transportation Administration</a> below has more details.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/12/10/bmw-i8-recalled-over-possible-fuel-leak/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>BMW i8 recalled over possible fuel leak</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/12/10/bmw-i8-recalled-over-possible-fuel-leak/">BMW i8 recalled over possible fuel leak</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Wed, 10 Dec 2014 11:00:00 EST.
