BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10148100 · Jun 2014 · also written SI B65 14 14, B651414

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.

Special Technical Campaign. BMW is cooperating with this request. None of the reported cases involve any BMW vehicles. Additional information will be provided at that time. A press release from NHTSA on this topic is expected to be issued on Monday, June 23, 2014.
