A failed rod bearing at 55,000 miles is indicative of faulty design. BMW needs to step up to the plate like they did on the e46 and recall the bearings and extend the engine warranty to 10 years.
In lieu of that, offering goodwill repair and extending warranties on a case by case basis seems reasonable to me.
Saying the OP should be responsible for a BMW manufacturing defect is BS.
