So, I am sitting in my office a few minutes ago when my assistant pushed her head in to tell me that my BMW service center was on the phone for me. I got on the tele, expecting her to ask me why I neglected to fill out the silly survey from my last visit. Instead, she said "your car has notified us a short while ago that it needs servicing, and I am calling to schedule a time for you to bring it in". Bloody Hell !!! Seems like I am driving David Hasselhof's car, Kit.
The funny thing is that the "service due" alert showed up yesterday and I was going to make an appointment this morning and totally forgot. Now, if Kit could only notify BMW when other little annoying things are going wrong with it.

I happened to me a month ago -- 30 days prior to my state inspection expiration date.

You can also 'force' this by going into the service settings and requesting a service, or contact.
I think you have to have an assigned service center in your profile on Owners circle though.
My service center sucks so bad that they just ignore it. I asked and one of the service reps said (and I quote). "If the car can make the request, then it's fine to drive and they'll just call and make an appointment".
I rolled off my chair laughing. I wish I had a better Service Center near by...
