What it said before
Nothing has changed while we have been watching. We last read the wording of this campaign on 17 September 2026, and it matched the copy we already held.
That copy hashes to 4a21f51f6997b1d0f90383fb4c3e6c7d…, so if it is ever edited the change is provable rather than a matter of memory.
This is one of 663 notices in the record whose component field names exterior lighting. Across that group the median wait before owners were written to was 43 days.

The wording we hold for 26V115 · how the whole register is watched
203 days after this was filed with the regulator, the register still carries no date for the letter to owners. The sixty days 49 CFR 577.7 allows have passed. A blank there is a gap in the record, which is not the same as a gap in the post: where this maker stands on the sixty days.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the BMW S 1000 RR, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
