OP, find out the address where the car was parked and look it up on Google maps. If that's not an option, I highly suggest inspecting the underside of the car, specifically suspension components, wheel hubs, exhaust, etc. As well as under the hood. Also, if the tire valve stem caps are missing very likely the valves may need to be replaced. I've seen the tire valve issue many times. Sometimes the corrosion gets so bad you can't add air to the tires.
Would any of that corrosion be covered under 12 year BMW rust warranty?
