Recall Notice

Plugged my last 7 digits of my VIN (09/2012 build date) at BMWUSA's website and to my supprise a "recall" pops up for my vehicle. It states to either call my local dealer or their toll-free number for more information regarding the recall(s).

I just got my car back from it's 1500 mile fluid change and neither the SA (Good Guy), nor my paper work made any mention of a "recall" for my car.... looks like I will be giving BMW USA a call...............and paying the dealer another visit

I guess I'll be visiting BMWUSA's website on a regular basis.

I'll post the Recall number/issue once I find out....

EDIT: Didn't mean to cause a frenzy. Called my SA and he looked it up. Stated it was a NAV recall - nothing serious....WTF....I said, seriously? Why can't they just call non-critical updates as "Required Service Update". SA agreed but stated that all Recalls/Updates/Campaigns are classified as "Recalls".

Can you provide the link of the website you used?

EDIT: Found it

Oh sh!t... post the link or info.

Where do you plug in your VIN#? I've never seen this.

Nevermind, just pulled it up...No recall for me

I plugged in my VIN - no recall for me (8/2012 build).

Mine is recalled. 11/2012 build date. Anyone know what this is for? I'm at 750 miles so will be in fairly soon for service anyway.

Ah, just saw op's update. Sounds like nothing serious and can wait till my 1200 mile service. Cool.
