If only this was to solve spin crank hubs. Surprised there hasn't been a dealer provided fix

Steel driveshaft FTW!

Exactly, the only difference I see between US and Canada cars is the odometer ml vs km...so both cars were is the same factory line at the same time, there are a lot of chances that they get the same part with the same issue.

CF. Also after dealer showed green on recall I showed up and It was tagged red. Said parts will start to ship feb

If you want to try and expedite your SA needs to have their manager reach out to bmw NA regional team.
