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.
WATER INSIDE REAR LIGHT ASSEMBLY. Water is inside rear light assembly. Water is drawn into the rear light assembly through ventilation openings.
