I stopped by the grocery store on the way home the other day. I had a couple of rolls of paper towels in addition to the other contents which was slightly larger than the side bag could handle without a little coaxing. The reflector broke off of the side of the bag. I guess the stress of (and I really didn't put any muscle in it) having the sides expand slightly broke the plastic receivers that mount onto the two metal posts on the side of the bag.
Unfortunately, BMW won't have the part available for months. They're going to replace them for me (with the admonishment of "don't do that again please", but still it's a bit of a drag. Fortunately, the bag actually looks OK without the reflector.
