I heard a few better ones in the Great State of Idaho at a BMW Dealership;
1) Sorry you only have 2 Options since
"WE DO NOT DEAL WITH CANADIAN CARS IN THE US AS FAR AS WARRANTY IS CONCERNED OUR WARRANTY POLICIES ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE CANADIAN ONE" you only have 2 Options open to you a) call Road Side Assistance and they will tow you to the nearest Canadian Dealership (oh yes some 1,000 miles northbound LOL I was thinking) or b) we order you a wheel and you pay us then take the wheel back to Canada or ship it.
and ....
2) When the new wheel arrived (yes I did order the wheel, I figured I best take the "b" option offered to me since "a" might purchase 2 new wheels rather then paying the towing charge LOL) anyway I was then told
"SORRY WE DON'T HANDLE WHEEL TIRE WORK THIS IS DONE BY THE TIRE SHOP DOWN THE STREET, WE TAKE YOU THERE" So I followed and watched the friendly tire shop damaged my already cracked wheel.
Something to think about when Canadians make there way down south in a BMW and for our American friends when they venture north in there BMW. Best leave such trips for later when your car no longer is under warranty. If I venture south in the next 3 1/2 years I be sure to take our reliable US build by FORD Jaguar. LOL
