ESPECIALLY if it's part of a recall campaign, even though your particular VIN/model isn't listed. Keep going up the corporate ladder until you get a yes. If you can't get a yes, let me know and I'll reach out to my contact at Corporate and put you in touch with the right person. This is a safety issue that BMW doesn't want on their hands.
This has been an intermittent PIA issue since I got my 2006 3.0i back in April. The past three days or so the light on the dash and at the sunroof control area hasn't gone away. I stopped by the dealer where I purchased the car and pleaded my case related to the recall that occurred for 2006 X5's manufactured through 11/05 (Mine is a 5/06 manufact. date). They are going to call BMW NA to request a good will repair. Crossing my fingers.
