SITUATION
BMW NA has agreed to extend, to a total of 8 years or 82,000 miles, whichever comes first, the
emissions warranties covering the Settlement Class Members’ vehicles for any failure of a turbocharger
caused by a defect in a turbocharger wastegate.
The terms of the original New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty and applicable emissions warranty still
apply. BMW NA will not provide warranty coverage to any Settlement Class Member’s vehicle
containing modifications or alterations to the turbocharger or its wastegates (software, hardware or
otherwise), or evidencing other conditions not normally covered under the original New Vehicle/SAV
Limited Warranty or applicable emissions warranty.
Modifications excluded from warranty coverage include any aftermarket parts that affect the
turbocharger system, or if there are other conditions that would normally exclude it from warranty
coverage.
