Been there at the lease turn in stage with other high end vehicles and you're right.

I feel for you guys already leasing. It's probably not much comfort, if any, but your experinces with this issue will stop others like me from leasing or buying until either (A) BMWNA gets involved and steps up or (B) individual dealers vow to cover such damage as a warranty item or otherwise (it would still suck to have to deal with this on a recurring basis). They will have to step up one way or another if sales drop off in connection with this issue and others.
