vehicles (retired service loaners, company vehicles and demos) will
remain unaffected by this change. They will be treated as "new vehicles"

- Transferability continues unchanged for Pre-MY15 vehicles and MY15 vehicles retailed before July 1, 2014
- A "household" exception exists to allow customers to transfer vehicles within their families without terminating the Program.

maintenance programs are available to the exclusive benefit of the
initial purchaser, owner, or lessee of a new vehicle, sales demonstrator

Puerto Rico). Coverage is not transferable to subsequent purchasers,
owners, or lessees. The sole exception to the non-transferability of
coverage is that household transfers - transfers within the United
States (including Puerto Rico) to members of the household of the
initial purchaser, owner, or lessee of a BMW vehicle from an authorized
BMW center - will not terminate coverage. Household transfers are
limited solely to transfers to a current or former spouse or spousal
equivalent, child, sibling, parent, grandparent, or grandchild from the
initial purchaser, owner, or lessee of a vehicle. In the event of a
household transfer, purchasers, owners, or lessees of a BMW vehicle
should promptly advise their authorized BMW center to document and
confirm the household transfer for purposes of coverage. The payoff of a
loan on a vehicle by the initial purchaser and the purchase of a leased
vehicle by the initial lessee are not considered transfers for purposes
of coverage. |
