Power window cracking on BMW G42 models (2025); BMW gives an inspection and repair procedure.
BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 11015553 · Mar 2025 · also written SI B41 01 25, B410125
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.
A crack may have formed in the upper left corner of the trunk opening (circled in red),where the quarter panel contacts the left lower corner of the rear window and trunk water channel.
