BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10151010 · Jan 2016 · also written SI B51 42 15, B514215
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 support element for the left side C-pillar trim may become loose during its service life. The support element may not have been tightened correctly.
