## NHTSA's summary

Incorrect Remaining Service Life from CBS Data for Brake pads.

VEHICLES AFFECTED: This Service Action involves certain X3 vehicles which were produced from July 2010 to September 2011. In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Service Action completed or is affected by this Service Action, first check the B\-pillar label for code number 608. If code number 608 has been punched out, the campaign has already been performed. If code number 608 has not been punched out, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet \(Dealer Communication System\) or the Key Reader. Based on the response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action."
