Thumbs down 2014 X3 Timing Chain Issues

MY wife took her X3 in and paid BMW $6,000 for repairs and then after getting it back, less than 200 miles later the engine now needs to be replaced. I will get what work they did tomorrow as well as what they now say is the problem. But for now they're saying that its 2 different situations and they aren't on the hook for repairing it.

Does BMW not warranty their work?

If anyone has been in a similar situation, please let me know how it was resolved and the best solution to getting it fixed.

thanks In advance (will update with more asap)

Welcome to the forum...
Until you provide the exact details for this story, people can only guess a solution, but for now, I'll assume the work they did was not related to the failure. You didn't mention an engine model

well I was hoping its all related. if it is, do they have a "warranty" for their work?

Do they have many jobs besides the timing chain on the motor that costs 6,000$?

thanks for the welcome and reply
