Everyone's F30s have been devalued as a consequence of this issue. Many people have had to pay very significant sums of money to address this concern, including complete engine replacement. Many of those people were likely placed into difficult financial situations. The amount of money lost in value or through direct payment to the issue is very significant for a mistake from a company that makes billions of dollars of net revenue.
Comparing the N20 and the people involved to a satirical and fringe lawsuit case is demeaning and disrespectful.
Satirical and fringe?? The woman incurred 2nd degree burns to her inner thighs and that was through her clothing. The residual value of an F30 is no different than any other BMW of the past. Just about every engine BMW has manufactured has an Achilles heel of one sort or another. The lawsuit is based on 'what if' scenarios, not one complainant has suffered a loss. Which is astounding that the lawsuit was even allowed to continue in the 1st place.

But good luck on your shade tree repair. Make sure you post before pics and of the tow truck pulling it away when you realize how over your head you are and knee deep so we all can get a good laugh. 😁👍🏽
