But when i heard about brown spots on roof i am very annoyed about this situation
This is really un acceptable and rust on the body of car should effect on strenght&safety..
I hope that this would not come real
It won't affect the structure that much if it is just surface rust. It becomes more cosmetic than a threat. But I don't know if it's only surface or not, I've heard both.

Just read this on another BMW Forum:

"I've been told by the dealer that BMW will officially release a fix i.e. modified parts to dealers by the end of November. That said, they have offered to replace the parts now with new ones that they will coat themselves.

Whilst I'm quite impatient I think waiting for the official fix will probably be better than going for the short term solution."

I hope that's true.
