There is also an issue with the steering box so BMWNA is buying the car back.

My question is if any of the recent deliveries with the HUD have had this issue or should I just bag it and get something different?
Steering box problem? What happened?

I've got a subtle squeak in the cold when I hit big bumps, and a paper crinkle noise from the passenger side... But honestly, it's so I frequent, that I'll wait until it becomes worse/frequent.

This is sort of common with new BMWs and usually goes away by 10k, with weather changes and plastics rubbing setting Into place over time. Let's see.
