They refilled the tank and it emptied out again in 2 weeks.
Earlier today, I took my car to a different dealer and he said the car had been in an accident before. He also said BMW may not replace the part since it had been replaced and painted over. I wasn't aware of the face that the car had been in an accident at the time of purchase. In the end, the wiper fluid leak hasn't been fixed because I didn't want to end up paying out of pocket.
I'm planning on going back to the dealer I purchased the car from. Before I go see them, I'd like to learn more about accidents and CPO. I understand a BMW won't get certified if it had been in a "major accident". But, I don't know what's considered a major accident.
Please help me understand CPO a little better. It seems like the dealership/bmw should be responsible for fixing something that was broken when I got the car. Especially with the CPO warranty. I can use some feedback on this issue before I go see them.
Thanks

They will certify cars that are lemons. Just saying. They CPO'd my 2011 335 that was a PUMA case and had HPFP when it was certified.
