NHTSA Complaint #11620344 — 2011 BMW 328I

There is a Voluntary Safety Recalled #23V707 issued for my 2011 BMW 328i that deals with the Vanos Solenoid. My VIN is not included on this recall per website. My check engine light diagnosis shows a vanos solenoid issues. Dealership replaces vanos solenoid. Light comes back on, now the whole unit needs to be replaced. I separately went to a German mechanic and he communicated two times that my issue should be covered under the recall. How is this not associated with the safety recall issued in October 2023? Wouldn’t faulty bolts directly impact the engine and cause the whole unit problems? I feel terrified driving my car as I transport my elderly parents and fear for our safety.
