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.

ROUTING OF DRIVER'S SEAT WIRING HARNESS: The seat wiring harness on the left front area of the driver's seat of the affected vehicles may have been routed incorrectly.
