BMW Assist can't do near that much - they won't even activate vehicle tracking without a police report number. By the time you have the report filed and an official report number, your car could be stripped to the frame . . .

BMW will one up GM by making it where they deactivate the car and drive the "sum bitch" straight to the police station...

Next BMW Assist will detect piggybacks and disable your car, request tow truck and send your car straight to dealership and red flag it...
