I have pruchased a pre owned - certified bmw from tisher auto. The car was purchased 6/23/01. It has been less than 90 days and i am obligated to pay for both rear light assemblies to correct the problem with the right rear brake light . The brake light does not come on and the console indicator confirms this. The dealer say that there is a short in the circuit board that control the function of the brake light assembly. I would appreciate it if you can inform me of any recalls on this particular vehicle. I have had the car less than 90 days and the repair cost is $436 dollars. I am trying to grasp the fact that this is a certified vehicle that i put just over 6400 miles on. Can you help.
