    Who all got your second tail light recall letter?

    I just got my official "we got parts so make an appointment" letter.

    Which dealer to go to now. I may go to the one that deals with Ferrari and Maserati so I can stay entertained when waiting.

    I just got a second recall letter today for the Tail Light malfunction. I was hoping that it would be for the Xenon headlights when I saw it. I thought it was really odd that they would send a second letter. My dealer had my car fixed a week after I got the first letter a few months ago.

    I didn't get any letters at all (know about the recall, though), but I also bought my car used (although from a dealer), so BMW probably doesn't know who/where I am. Do I need to register myself with BMW NA or something?

    The recall is for sedans only your coupe is ok.

    They get the info from your VIN when you register the car with the state. You're the current owner.

    Oh, I thought it affected coupes, too. Don't the coupes and sedans have identical tail lights?
