My air bag light came on and will not go off. I know someone else who has the same make, model and year as I do and they told me that their air bag light is on as well. I am afraid that if I were involved in an accident my air bag will not work. I feel that this could definitely be a safety issue and should be resolved immediately. Thank you for your time and consideration in getting this issue resolved.

On 12/21/06, I was driving on a two-lane road when another driver lost control of his truck, his backend slid off the road and when the back tires gained traction, it shot his truck across his lane and into the side of my car with the front of his truck. His truck ended up damaging my car down the entire driver side (front to rear). My side impact air bags never deployed. My side mirror came through my window and struck me in the arm with glass impacting my left ear, eye and cheek as well as my mouth. The collision center cannot explain why the air bag never deployed. The car is still at the collision center with $10,000 worth of damage.
Dt: while driving on a street the consumer noticed a small pothole and the consumer could not remember if she struck the pothole or not. Instantly, the front passenger's air bag as well as the side/curtain passenger's airbag partially deployed. The consumer was on her way to the dealer when this occurred to trade in on a new vehicle and decided to journey to the dealership with the airbags partially deployed. The consumer inspected the vehicle, no visible damage or impact was noticed. The dealer has made no corrections. The dealer was awaiting an inspection from a bmw representative. This was the first and only incident with the airbags deploying.
T-boned an eighteen wheeler going 55 MPH after he pulled out in front of me to make a left-hand turn on a highway. The airbag of my bmw 325i failed to deploy resulting in injury.
Inadvertent deployment of my driver side airbags. I was driving on highway at approximately 50 MPH (due to rain) and my airbags deployed. I was able to safely pull over to side of road. Tire was blown out and there was some damage to bottom of car from debris, but it is unclear if blowout and debris damage happened before or after airbag deployment. Either way, there was no impact with any object that should have caused this deployment. My car has not been driven for nearly 4 weeks now and it should have only needed a tire replacement. Any other damages could have been fixed in my own time, but car is not drivable b/c of airbag deployment and repair costs are very high.
Right front passenger sustained severe eye injury as a result of the deployment of the right front airbag in a crash. Passenger suffers partial blindness. Undergone several surgeries. Passenger was female and smaller in stature.
While driving on the freeway, consumer hit an 80 pound piece of iron that was lying in the road, which resulted in 2 blown tires on the drivers side front and rear, both rims bent, consumer was able to control the vehicle and pull over, consumers concern is that the right side door air bag deployed even though the impact was on the left side of the vehicle, consumers wife suffered a bruise from the deployment of the airbag, there is also other damage to the vehicle.
