I would be very upset if this was my car. 4,000 miles on a very expensive auto shouldn't need a motor and can see how you would be very upset. Personally I lease and still would be upset as I didn't buy a pre owned one and now you are getting a recon motor with no history and some technician at a BMW dealer taking the auto apart and then reassembling it. You may get lucky and get someone who knows what they are doing taking it all apart but only time will tell. When the auto was made it was assembled in the factory with a specialist who just does that all day long. I am sure you could ask what the history on the motor was but I doubt you will find out the whole story as it might have several parts from many motors. They may be following the warranty but with that new of an auto I wouldn't expect this kind of issue and seems like maybe a bigger problem with the the few who have had the same issue . I would really push to get them to buy it back or at least get them to do a swap into a new one. However I was just reading another post that production is haulted for some engineering thing. If you are the kind of person who holds the car to it dies you will be fine with value as it won't mater. However if you sell or try to sell it in the next year or two good luck even with an extended warranty. I would question why such a new car with such low miles would need a new motor so soon. You will sell it but it will be way below value. As other have said work with BMW and see if they will help you get out of this car. I would also get an attorney to see what the lemon law is in your state as well as the Magnuson Moss federal law. Best of luck and stay firm and let us know the outcome. I would really think BMW would do something on good faith to keep you in the family.
