Are brakes covered under a BMW warranty?

I have a BMW X3 that’s only about two years old, but sometimes I hear a grinding sound when I hit the brakes. It might be wishful thinking, but are brakes covered under a BMW warranty?

While the BMW factory warranty is pretty generous, keep in mind that it only covers damage caused by factory defects. But that doesn’t mean you’re out of luck! Worn out brake pads or rotors are among
the most common reasons for grinding brakes
—and they’re both covered under the BMW Maintenance Program for four-years or 50,000 miles.
Not only are maintenance programs a huge help when it comes to unexpected mechanical problems, they can save you money in the long run too. By staying on top of your car’s
basic maintenance schedule
, you’re more likely to catch small problems before they become big ones that are much more expensive to fix.
