Look, I'm not even saying that the paint IS the cause. But it could be. The "could" part of the equation is more than enough for the dealership and BMW NA to deny the warranty claim. The Magnusson-Moss act has nothing to do with this, just so you know. Had you replaced the caliper with an aftermarket brake system, and the transmission were to fail? You have more than enough to stand on re: claim. But you modified the actual part that failed. Whether or not it actually is the cause, is immaterial.
