BMW Assist
BMW Assist provides you with various services.
For example, the position data of your vehicle
can be transmitted to the BMW Assist
Response Center if an emergency call
*
has
been initiated.
Many BMW Assist services depend on the indi-
vidually agreed contract.

tem can be reactivated by a BMW center after a
new contract has been signed.
