How long the BMW warranty is on a new car depends on which model you buy. In general, though, the New Vehicle Limited Warranty lasts four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first.
BMW provides a few warranties for new vehicles:
Warranty
What’s covered
Length of coverage
Basic New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Defects in material or workmanship
4 years/50,000 miles
Powertrain Warranty
Defects in the engine, transmission, or drivetrain
4 years/50,000 miles
Federal Emission Warranty
Emission components
2 years/24,000 miles
Rust Perforation Warranty
Rust damage related to body perforation or damaged materials
12 years/unlimited miles
