Recall for F07 Left Rear Air Suspension

Hey GT lovers...I was doing a project on my GT which required access to BMWTIS.com - in the process, I noticed that there is a current recall to replace the left rear air suspension on my VIN. I called my local dealer and they confirmed it will be done when I can bring it in. SA says it takes about 1/2 a day, perhaps less. The bags are being ruptured on the left side somehow, so he says...hope they've updaed the design so I don't have to do it again. Check with your local dealer to see if your GT is affected. This also impacts F11's so Europeans should check theirs too.

Interesting, My GT is in at BMW at the moment, my rear left air bag was going up and down to the point of it could not be driven,

it was recovered and dropped of at my local BMW and its a 5 to 6 week waiting list as the part is on back order

Only in the US0fA

Apparently this issue is NOT a recall in the UK, I tried to argue the issue with my BMW dealer and I also mentioned that it was in the US and other country's but it fell on deaf ear's...

Its a good thing that I have the extended BMW Warranty with the car.
