I am having the exact problem that recall 24V608 has described but BMW USA and dealership will not fix my issue under the recall. This issue had occurred [XXX]. and inspected by my independent service center and identified the issue as the recall. The water pump is running out of control after the engine is off. The water pump is leaking at electrical connector. However BMW has stated they do not have a remedy to the recall as of 1-3-25, 5 months after the federal safety agency put out the recall announcement. BMW USA. The remedy has stated that water pump and electronic to be replaced and a shield to be put in place. I am sure that the replacement water pump and Electronic is currently available, Just the shield may not be available. As the federal safety agency has issued this recall and has a potential of Fire. I believe BMW should as a minimum replace current faulty parts of the recall now. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
