2014 550i Low Coolant warning???

Guys a good friend of mine has a 2014 550i with 10k miles on the clock. This morning he got a low coolant warning and iDrive said to quit driving the vehicle immediately.

This is a bit odd, he just got it back from service 2 weeks ago and fluids were checked. I can only assume he's had a water pump failure or perhaps a head gasket? I guess it could be the sensor as well?

He's going to arrange a service trip to the dealer, does anyone have ideas on what the issue may be? He is pretty concerned about it.

I had a coolant leak issue recently--one of the connections to the reservoir was slowly leaking. It was apparent just by opening the hood and looking near the reservoir. The dealer replaced the connector and, I think, the tube connected to it.
