What it covers
A warranty extension means BMW will repair the listed part at no cost on eligible cars within the stated age and mileage. Check eligibility for your VIN with a BMW center before paying for this repair.
If the situation is currently present, sit in the seat and move the seat to a slightly different position. The POL (Passenger Occupancy Light) light should now function correctly.
