Hopefully you ARE reporting these failures to NHTSA? There are links in the fuel-strip survey thread sticky on how to easily do this.. and what parameters to use when you report it.
FWIW - people often complain that the MOA should be more pro-active toward BMW-Motorrad on behalf of the club members. That's not an easy thing to do if people don't take some responsibility and effort themselves. In this case - reporting failures to NHTSA so they get an idea of the failure rate is something YOU can do that may result in an outcome you'll be happy with. It's good you can post failures here, but the NHTSA isn't reading this forum so it is basically just venting. After you vent here - visit the NHTSA website and report the failure, that may well help all of us (and I believe it already has with BMW's extending the warranty to 12 years from in-service date for the fuel strips.)
