In my case, this occurred before I took delivery of the car when new. I noticed the water damage the next day or so and got the dash replaced no problem.
So mine is getting replaced now under warranty. They just finished my dash and now working my door which also got approved. I too thought water from the ceramic tint but I tested water in the leather and it doesn't leave a stain like that. Maybe it was more saturated.

BMW said that they think it is adhesive underneath coming apart. It was in corners of my dash near my center speaker and near the pillar. Near the pillar the leather was peeling up. Who knows.

Glad it got resolved.

Thanks for the feedback.
