Why is Amazon Alexa no longer available in my BMW?

With vehicle software 26-07, "Hey Alexa", i.e., Amazon Alexa Car Integration, is no longer supported in vehicles equipped with Operating System 9. Activate the Intelligent Personal Assistant, simply by saying "Hey BMW" or even just "BMW", to interact with music, vehicle functions, and more.
