I have access to BMW service bulletins, and it is very common for them to describe a fault, then end with these words: "...BMW will replace/repair Part X if and only if the customer complains". By and large, these types of problems are not safety related in a direct sense, rather they involve some sort of minor malfunction that might go unnoticed by some customers. This is the German way of saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".
