It appears that the design was not improved with my model year and yet my vehicle is NOT part of the extended warranty.  My vehicle is only 4 years old and BOTH the upper and lower air flap control motors have failed.  The motors are not sold individually, but are sold as a part of the entire shutter assembly which has a part cost of $250 - $350 each with comparable installation costs.  The lower shutter assembly requires the removal of the entire bumper.  Why is the extended service warranty not applicable to newer models?","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"330I","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
