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.
TAILGATE LIGHT CRACKED. Cracks may be present in the rear lights mounted to the tailgate. Stress caused by an additional mounting bracket.
