United-States Has anyone received "Potential Problem" letter from Mini?

Forgive me if this has been posted already here, or in another forum, but I did not find anything on this in my search. I also hope I am posting in the correct forum. I received a letter from Mini regarding a "potential problem relating to the incorrect routing of the engine wiring harness". I was advised to bring the car to a Mini service center where the problem would be remedied at their expense. Has anyone else received this letter? What exactly does that mean? I have a 2005 MCS Convertible (production March 05).

The service manager said that they frequently get recalls (?) on all Mini models. Is that posted here on Mini2?

When I brought my Mini in a couple of months ago to have the top replaced (it broke and was also faded), they did have a notation in the system about replacing faded tops, but I was not notified of this by letter. Does this mean that they only notify Mini owners about potentially hazardous malfunctions? I know the subject of the convertible has been discussed here several times before.

Anyway....Am LOVING my Mini!!!

Person that sits behind me in the UK had this done a few weeks ago. Its a quick job apparently. He said he could have had it done while he waited.

Might be best to have a look in the Faults & Fixes forum and/or the Convertible forum

This is posted in the faults and fixes forum, there's three MINIs in my family and they've all been recalled for this. It's basically every MINI before a certain build date (which I cannot recall from the top of my head).
