Saini V BMW Settlement over Demo Vehicle

If you purchased a BMW between September 28, 2006 and October 6, 2014, then claim into the BMW Demo Vehicle Class Action Settlement at SainivBMWSettlement.com to get benefits.

Those who bought a “new” BMW vehicle within the time period of September 28, 2006 to before October 6, 2014, then it can be a demonstration car. BMW of North America has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit over Demo cars. The company will provide warranty extension and reimbursement for past expenses to all the class members of the BMW Demo Vehicle Class Action Settlement, who submit a valid claim form at SainivBMWSettlement.com.
BMW Demo Car
Plaintiff named Sanjay Saini filed a class action lawsuit against BMW claiming that the company dealers sold sales demonstration ("sales demo") and Aftersales Mobility Program ("service demo") vehicles as New with an "ultimate warranty" without informing them the cars were demo cars. The dealers also informed to customer that the limited warranty for the vehicle had started before they purchased the vehicle. BMW denies these claims but agreed to end the lawsuit.


Class members include the initial purchasers of a BMW sales & service demo vehicle that was identified in the sale contract as “New” and whose warranty had begun prior to customer purchase. Class members have to submit a claim form along with needed documents before February 3, 2015 to get benefits from the BMW Demo Vehicle Class Action Settlement.

Two different types of claim forms: Sales Demo Vehicles and Service Demo Vehicles available at SainivBMWSettlement.com. You can file submit the Claim Form online the official website of settlement or via mail.

Class members will get following benefits:

Warranty Extension:
