Just wanted to vent a bit... I took the delivery of my M3 in mid-December 2020. Everything has been fine and I am loving the car. Unfortunately, on a super windy day this week, my wife drove into a small flying board of some kind on highway 401. The board hit the car just right and pushed one of the front parking sensors in.
I scheduled a service appointment and was expecting a $175 bill to reseat the sensor. It turned out to be a ~$1900 bill to replace the front bumper. The explanation given was that the plastic seating in the bumper was gone so there is nothing to attach the sensor to. The only way to fix the issue is to replace the whole bumper...
Has anyone had a similar issue before? I suppose it is bad luck. But I can't stop but think the build quality/fragility of the car is partly to blame...
