What it covers
A service bulletin tells BMW technicians how to diagnose or fix a known issue. It is not a recall: a repair under a bulletin is normally paid by the owner unless the car is still under warranty or a warranty extension applies.
BMW AG has issued a Delivery Stop (effective July 12, 2023) on certain Model Year 2023 - 2024 BMW vehicles that were produced between July 21, 2022, and July 11, 2023.
