The failures apparently do happen; I just got my 2018 R1200 GS Rallye back today from it's 30K service. They did a "Swingarm Drain Retrofit and Driveshaft Check". In the invoice notes it states:
Tech preformed recall. Tested shaft, failed.
Drilled hole and replaced shaft. Shaft seized to rear end.
Removal using special tool required.
0060406 drilling hole .3
+3373502 check .6
3373507 r/r .3
3373503 special tool .3
total 1.5hr JSN
I'm glad that BMW picked up the tab for that.
With this servicing , recall and a new Dunlop Trailmax Mission rear tire, I am ready for my ride to Redmond!
