Cracked wheels - has BMW taken responsibility?
A wheel of my Z4 has a crack.
According to USA posts, BMW has taken responsibility. Does anyone know any more about this? This might be useful to know because it could save me over £700 Here is a relevant USA article: https://www.carcomplaints.com/news/2...-lawsuit.shtml |

How did you know that the wheel was cracked? Did you feel it or see it or lose air pressure? My new tires all of sudden feel like they have a flat spot in the morning until they warm up and I'm wondering if that a sign of a wheel crack.

This is for the LA296 wheel
The car has to be under the original warranty period to make a claim. I don't know if it applies outside North America or not. I had one replaced just prior to my warranty expiring. The dealer didn't know about the settlement. I had to bring the information with me to the service department. They still had to check with the corporate office which confirmed the settlement.
