SUBJECT
Passenger Side Floor Mat Curling
MODEL
E90, E91, E92, E92 (3 Series) produced between 9/2007 and 3/2008
SITUATION
The construction of the floor mat changed for the 2008 model year to enhance its appearance and performance. A new "flocked" backing for increased grip has been added, and the retention augers on the passenger side, which secure it to the carpet, have been eliminated.
On passenger side floor mats, a preload is present on the mat during manufacturing, which causes the forward edge of the mat to curl back onto itself.
CAUSE
An error in the manufacturing process
PROCEDURE
Replace the floor mat set. The preload caused during manufacturing has been eliminated.
