Owner Narrative
When trying to start the vehicle it will say that the starter has overheated and to try restarting again in xx seconds. This occurs randomly and the car does not indicate that the engine is over heating, just the starter. When looking online it appears there is an active recall for this very issue but my VIN is not registered with the recall. BMW believes that my car should be covered under this warranty and advised filing a report with the NHTSA to have it extended to my car. The vehicle is a 2019 and was produced in March of 2019.
