The production starts around Sep 5th. Is this car in the recall list? It is not produced in Aug, but I think the engine might be assembled in Aug?

If I understand it correctly, they don't have a fix. If that's true, I would expect all N20/N26's to be affected unless a production change was made. (But if a change was made, why wouldn't they have a fix for cars already on the road?) An undelivered car won't be "recalled" because it hasn't been registered yet, but it will probably be included in the "stop sale" and will be held until the fix is implemented. You might have some leverage getting a loaner given the situation. Frankly, I'm shocked BMW isn't requesting current owners park their cars. I assume it's because they can't provide loaners for everybody, but it sure seems like a huge liability risk to me. I log a lot of miles, and with heavy travel planned in the upcoming weeks, I'm more than a little uneasy about the situation.
