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.

HOLE IN LEATHER AT SIDE LOCK BOLT, 2ND ROW 60/40 SPLIT BENCH SEAT: There is a visible hole in the leather of the 2nd row of seats. The hole is located on the side lock bolt of the left rear seat backrest.
