Could this be your BMW service department?
Big fail here. It looks like a BMW dealer's service area because of those unique tiles they're supposed to use.

Hope this didn't happen at your dealer.

I assume it fell because it appears to be a little light in the front.

Either the tech did not put the lift arms properly or the lift was not maintained and had malfunction with arm. They do look old Rotary lifts. The lift arms on in-ground 3rd bay are 20+ years old.

I used to pray something like this would happen to my E53 every time I took her in for service. I even told my advisor and technician.

I think that's what Michelle was hoping for.

I don't have the back story on this disaster but I would BET that the dealer tried to weasle out of it somehow and the owner of the 3er had to fight like hell, or is still fighthing for a replacement.
