Issues with My 2023 BMW 760i xDrive

[Madame_de_Fer]

Hi everyone, I recently leased a 2023 BMW 760i xDrive (loaner), and I’ve noticed a few issues with the car. I’m wondering if these are covered under warranty, and I’d appreciate any advice or insights!

Here are the problems I’ve encountered:

• The rear passenger-side tablet seems to have etching beneath the glass.
• The passenger-side bottom lip isn’t fully in place, it’s slightly misaligned.
• Part of the front console trim is peeling off, which is driving me crazy.
• Every time I turn the wheel to the 9 & 3 o’clock positions, I hear a small crackling noise.

If anyone has dealt with similar problems or knows if these fall under warranty, your feedback would be much appreciated!

Wow! That is outrageous! All these problems, I hope they are covered by the warranty. Seriously?! The only thing to do is take it to the dealer and see what they say. Keep us posted on how it goes. Good luck!

These issues should likely be covered under warranty, but it’s best to contact BMW service for confirmation.

It might seem obvious, but have you tried gently pushing the rocker panel back into place? Sometimes, it’s a simple fix that just requires a firm push with your hand, spread out evenly to avoid causing any damage.

These problems shouldn't be there on a car this new, especially a flagship model.

You've got several warranty-covered issues like etching on the rear passenger tablet, a misaligned passenger-side bottom lip, peeling front console trim, and a crackling noise in the steering wheel at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions. The etching and trim peeling are clearly manufacturing defects, while the misaligned lip is a fit and finish problem. The crackling noise likely indicates a clock spring issue, though trim rubbing is also possible.

You better get everything document with photos and videos before contacting the dealership. Do it immediately! Don't accept excuses, and escalate to BMW North America if needed. These are all warranty claims, and you should insist on proper repairs.
