Are headlight bulbs covered under a lease?

[tp71]

One of my bulbs went out on my X5. Are the bulbs covered under the lease or not? Thanks

yes

Can you buy replacement bulbs at the auto store or does it have to be an OEM bulb used as to not cause any problems. The stealer wants $50 for an H8 bulb. Even though it's covered, it's not worth the time for me to bring it to the dealer if I could use a bulb from the auto store.

Yes, just make sure the wattage is close.

It should be free.
