No one knows the real numbers, but anecdotally it seems much smaller than the S65/S85 engine rod bearing issues.
The reason BMW doesn't recall it is the same reason that BMW didn't recall the S65 or S85 - the majority of the failures happen out of warranty. Sad to say, they don't really care, they go with whatever their actuaries think is the lowest risk to the business.
