    EV Extended Warranty Coverage

    Battery is already covered for 8 years and 100k miles, is there really a need for a extended warranty beyond that? I normally change cars after 6 years so i have 4 more years to go, if the next 4 years look like last 2 from out of pocket maintenance cost, i3 would pretty much pay for itself...

    The invoice says both, on top it reads refrigerant was not discharged then down below it says it was 'recharged'. My car is nearing end of warranty and i think i will end in same situation as OP.

    Air conditioning failed

    Windshield glass replacement - safelite ?

    Dealership didn't but when I was scheduling an appointment with them, they mentioned that a vendor would come to install. I watched them install, they seemed to know what they were doing.

    Windshield glass replacement - safelite ?

    I have used safelite last summer and have not had any issues yet. BMW dealership actually calls specialist from Safelite or another 3rd party for windshield replacements. This may not be always true though. Safelite was pleasure to work with. They calibrated the ACC camera as well. The who...

    So I installed the tint, the hardest part was positioning the film because of the dot matrix, the film would not slide. So I had to pull it off completely and then adjust. Doing that added some debris but nothing very noticeable on one window. Because of the dot matrix, I couldn't slide tint...

    Bent rims

    This is terrible! If the ditch was big then maybe 19inch wheels would have had the same dent! It seems tires/odd wheel size on i3 is not practical for consumers but only for BMW engineers. ps- assumption is based the fact that, there is NO single post where someone has praised i3 tires/wheels.
