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.

Erroneous Lane Change Warning. While driving, the Lane Change Warning (Blind Spot Detection) is illuminated erroneously on either outside mirror (orange triangle) when no other vehicles are around.
