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.
Service Action: Replace Neck Warmer Control Unit. The control unit for the rear seat neck warmer may not be coded correctly. This causes the neck warmer to malfunction. Incorrect coding of the neck warmer control unit
