I understand that bmw will remedy the defect presently, however 10/7/09 i paid $271.78 and 7/28/10 i paid $294.25 for repairs to the identical problem. Will i be reimbursed for those repairs done at my local auto service company, since i was unaware and not informed by bmw that it was due to defective parts? I do have the bills for those repairs as proof of the work done to the specific parts recalled. *tr
