1st post. Please excuse any etiquette violations.

Background: AC/Heating fan stopped blowing.

Searched online and discovered shorted blower motor regulator (almost caused a fire). Contacted local parts department for part quote ($89ish) and they advised me that there was an open Recall for the problem.

Visited local dealer for fix, but BMW North America "doesn't have it in their system yet". Urged Service Manager to call BMWNA to authorize the fix.

Fixed (new regulator and wiring harness). No charge.

Moral of the story: the recall was released for our cars on 6Aug19—might not show "authorized" at your local dealer. Convince them to fix or risk a cabin fire.

Message me for questions.
