Critical safety recall

Post by Wyldie85 » Fri Jul 10, 2020 7:24 am

I’m not holding my breath that I’ll have mine back on the same day then...
It’s due to go in on the 17th. If the start with ‘we don’t have the parts’, then I’ll be annoyed.

I’ve been told it’s a one day job and I haven’t been offered a loan car.

Critical safety recall

I got my 1 yr old m30i 3 weeks ago. there was a little bit of displaced fabric on the roof, which they looked at, and said it needed an entire new fabric roof...

It's been at Derby for 4 days sorting. Now they are retaining it until the recall track rod ends are sorted..

They've lent me a black G29 m40i in the interim though, so not all bad!

Critical safety recall

Post by Mewik » Tue Jul 14, 2020 6:50 am

My 3 series has been taken yesterday due to this. Had issues with the electrics so drove to the dealership as I was 5 mins away and they told me to leave and call roadside assistance, didn't even look at the car.

Roadside assistance guy was not impressed at all and told me there were two major recalls on the vehicle and one caused a stop on sales. He couldn't understand why no one has told me about this.

Anyway car has gone in now and I'll be amazed if I see it anytime soon. Dumbfounded that they failed to notify me of a major recall in the anyway and I'm inclined to think it's not that acceptable but hey.

There is a note appeared on the DVLA now stating that a recall was issued on the vehicle yesterday (13th July) so they've logged something when they've got it back. It looks to me like the recall wasn't applied to my vehicle in some way hence the lack of notification.

Mine was back with me on Friday. Dealer called at 3.45 and said it was done.
Recall complete and I enjoyed the drive home with the top down.

Right, software is updated, recall complete.... can I just get on and use it now? :D
