got into accident recently

Sylviae90 · 10-28-2011, 11:36 AM

hi, i recently got into a front left collision with my 2011 335i. I had my car collision repaired by a Farmer's Circle of Dependence autoshop. They replaced my left quarter, new hood, new bumper. they had to take out my whole engine bay and dash to weld to avoid catching on fire. Is my bmw warranty still intact or is it voided by these repairs?

Thanks!

Thats a serious crash! No engine damage? Surprised they didn’t total itp...

As long as it's repaired with BMW approved parts and (not sure about this) a BMW approved shop, your warranty should be okay.

No engine damage, had to replace the two engine rails, new hood, new bumper, new headlamps (both). all oem parts. they were a bosch-approved shop and had a bmw certified master technician. Is my warranty intact

? They did do an engine overhaul and welded some things on so they had to take off the whole dash to avoid fires....

Sue for diminished value! Your warranties fine. My Car was wrecked before I bought it (dealership never told me, I found out on my own. I trusted BMW of Murray enough not to run a carfax but whatever that was years ago and I no longer have that car. Anyway, my warranty was still completely fine)

diminished valve is only when accident is not your fault and it is state dependent. cant get a dime in MA for example.
