NHTSA Recall Number 23V099 - DIGITAL KEY

This is recall #2, in my case.

Quote:
Feb 17,2023
Manufacturer Recall Number: NA
NHTSA Recall Number: 23V099
Recall Status: Recall Incomplete
Summary
DIGITAL KEY: When the digital key is removed from the vehicle, continued operation of the windows and roof systems may be possible.

Safety Risk
This could increase the risk of injury. Please note that vehicles are equipped with an auto-reversal / anti-trap feature to help reduce the risk of injury. BMW recommends that, prior to your vehicle receiving the remedy, and to reduce the risk of possible injury, drivers only use the standard vehicle key fob, and not use the digital key.

Remedy
Potentially affected vehicles will receive a software update for free which should take about one hour.

At least all that is needed is a software update.

My car is getting this "fixed" at the port right now. From reading some other forums they said that the current fix was simply destroying the digital key and waiting for software update in July.

Can anyone who's had this done comment?

I got my "REMEDY IS AVAILABLE" letter over the weekend.

Starting May 1, you can schedule your appointment for the recall 'fix' which can take roughly an hour.

It sounds like it's not OTA (Over-The-Air) though.
