BMW North America called me to tell me they were shipping the hitches to the dealers after I had one shipped to me from New Jersey. BMW of Bloomfield in New Jersey was claiming they had them the whole time and had found 5 of them when they moved warehouses, when in fact they were just the first dealer to get them from the factory. Then they were trying to auction them off on E-bay at a premium knowing full well that every dealer would have them. I paid for shipping when I could have gotten one a few days later from Rusnak BMW here in Westlake Village, Ca. I paid shipping for nothing. I have to say that it is truly a disappointment to find out they were lying to me the whole time and disappointed they would take advantage of the desperate situation the lack of hitches put us all in. I am going to complain to BMWNA about this. They should not allow this type of behavior by an dishonest authorized dealer. I want my shipping back!
I did the install myself and it was a pain in the ass but I saved $500 for 5 hours of work. My hitch saga ends! Thank God. Now I can tow the boat and hook up my mountain bike rack. Finally, I actually do own a SAV.
