There is more to this story than what you're saying or what you know.

3 serpantine belt snaps should have been a sign that something is seriously wrong. Like people said our timing belts are not belts but chain and the whole situation is plausible but something definitely doesn't sound right.

If you've only been going to the dealer for work, I'd call up BMW NA and get a case created on this.... especially if it costs you a new engine or $15k. How long have you been out of warranty? You can make the case that htis should have been caught while you were in warranty ie were the belts snapping when you were under warranty.
