In November I received a letter from BMW notifying me that BMW was extending the warranty on my engine's "Timing Chain and Oil Pump Drive Chain" to 7 years/70,000 miles from my original service in date. I have a 2013 X3 2.8i.

the letter says:

This is a notice of a "limited warranty extension". This is not a notice of a recall or Service Action.

and ends:

The integrity of our products is essential to BMW's success and our customers' trust. We are determined to exceed your expectations and hope this warranty extensions further enhances your ownership experience.

In my case the letter starting me wondering if I should plan to replace my X3 before it hits 7 years.
