The BMW Maintenance Program -
2006 6 Series
The BMW Maintenance Programs are a benefit
designed to help reduce the cost of ownership.
2006 6 Series vehicles purchased from any
Authorized BMW center in the United States or
Puerto Rico are covered by the BMW Mainte-
nance Program for 48 months or 50,000 miles,
whichever occurs first. Coverage begins on the
date of first retail sale or the date the vehicle is
first placed in service as a demonstrator or com-
pany vehicle, whichever is earlier.
Any authorized BMW center in the United States

nance service, the cost of these services will not
be covered by the Maintenance Program.
