BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10203338 · Sep 2021 · also written SI B51 13 14, B511314
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.
The trunk lid/hatch does not open fully when unlatched with remote or hands-free operation.
