    Check engine light continuously goes on and off. As a result, had car diagnostic tested which resulted in the following $966.79 repairs: -remove & replace evaporative emissions system leak detection unit using the following parts: -vapor canister purge valve -fuel vapor detection pump w/ ventilation line leak diagnostic pump. Engine light stayed off for almost 2 months. Now engine light is back on. There is a recall for my model and year car 2022 x1, but my vin# is NOT indicated in recall: Summary: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2022 X1 xDrive 28i, X3 xDrive30i, and 228i Gran Coupe vehicles. The high-pressure fuel rail may crack and result in a fuel leak within the engine compartment. This recall should be broader and include all 2022 x1s. If my car were covered under recall, I don't believe that I would be having engine light issues.
