                            DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

     On August 16, 1999, BorgWarner, Inc. (the "Company") filed a registration
statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-85299) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission that registered 30,000 shares of common stock of the
Company, par value $.01 per share, and an indeterminate amount of plan interests
to be offered or sold pursuant to the Borg-Warner Automotive Medallion
Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan").

     Effective December 1, 2003, the Plan, along with four other defined
contribution employee benefit plans, was merged with and into the BorgWarner
Employees Retirement Savings Plan.  As of that date, 25,812 shares of common
stock remained registered and unissued under the Form S-8, Registration No.
333-85299.  The Company has ceased offering securities under the Plan, and no
additional securities will be issued thereunder.

     In accordance with the undertakings contained in Part II, Item 9 of the
registration statement and the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, we are filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the
Registration Statement to transfer the remaining unissued 25,812 shares of
common stock registered under Registration Statement No. 333-85299 to the
BorgWarner Employees Retirement Savings Plan, into which such Plan was merged as
described above.
