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.
General Electrical Systems Technical Service. VOLUNTARY EMISSIONS RECALL CAMPAIGN 17E-A01: CHECK CHARGING OF THE HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY Bulletin type was changed from a Service Action to an Emissions Recall. High-voltage charging system may not work correctly.
