How would that go exactly?
If Apple were to attempt to address it via a “BMW” only issue. They would do it via software. No way they would deny the customer a warranty swap as it would come off as tarnishing their brand. Especially when they specifically marketed BMW cars like the G30 specifically for features like Apple CarKey.
If that didn’t work they would work through BMW to fix the charger. But since it is an issue unique to the iPhone 15 it definitely isn’t a BMW caused problem.
The iPhone can detect it is outside of a safe operating temperature and turn off wireless charging to cool down. Obviously, the iPhone 15 wasn’t doing this. Hence the patch.
