Coming from Fords for the last 10 years or so I never once had a warranty claim issue. I had a lowered modding GT500 that the front bushings were squeaking. Very easily they could have said "nope not going to fix this as it is a result of you lowering the car". Not only did they fix it without question, but they replaced the other 3 at each of the corners just to be safe. $800 fix no questions.

I would think if it is BMW HQ decision they would be way more flexible especially in times like these. My car is brand new and now I am a bit concerned and hope I never need warranty work. Seems like it will be a hassle.
The dealer does "want to work under warranty". But they want to get paid and that won't happen unless BMW NA pays them. They are not running a charity. The previous poster is correct.
