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.

It is possible that the guide stem (aka rotational axis) on the wind deflector can break upon removal and/or during installation.
