There is really no reason for those kinds of fumbles. Checksums and other software verification techniques can virtually ensure proper OTA updates without all these problems along with adequate Beta review and debug before release. It is hard to believe corrective action is not being taken particularly since a process fix would save BMW and their dealers time and money.
