Passenger seat mat failed turning off passenger side airbags for a car manufactured in fall 2007 in germany. Bmw don't want to take ownership of the problem despite this being a safety issue and models prior to this cut-off date having already been recalled for the exact same problem. The passenger seat is rarely used and the car, despite being 9 years old, has only done 39,000 miles. This is a dangerous condition if the airbag is truly turned off though no codes indicate this is the case. Don't know what to believe
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 bmw 328i. While operating the vehicle, the passenger side air bag sensor illuminated along with a message indicating that the air bag would not deploy, if needed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the sensor was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 121,000.
After the car was serviced about a year and a half ago, the air bag light went on. When I took it back to the dealer, he said the sensors are really sensitive on the bmws. I recently found out that this year and model had a recall on airbags. When I called the dealer they asked that I refer this to you guys because my particular VIN is not included in the recall. I am now constantly driving in fear of a airbag malfunction.
Takata recall. I was mailed a safety recall notice from bmw alerting me to the fact that my airbags had been recalled, and that they posed a significant safety hazard. They told me that they did not have parts in supply currently to fix the issue, but would contact me again when they had the parts. This was over a year ago. They still have not contacted me about replacing my airbags. This has not been taken care of in a timely manner at all.
We received notice a of recall over a year ago and yet whenever I call my local bmw they tell me there is nothing to worry about and that we will be notified when they can fix it. They tell me that it is mostly older vehicles that are affected....but ours is 8 years old.
"seat-belt light/takata recall, it seems that my VIN number is not listed among the vehicles recalled but my airbag lights have been coming on and off as well as seatbelt lights and I believe that the two systems are linked and should be investigated for security reasons, the lights came on as the vehicle was in slow motion as I was attempting to park. I would like to have the parts replaced, especially if the airbags are manufactured by takata or another manufacturer.
Takata recall I have contacted bmw customer service at least 3 times to get an estimation as to when my vehicle will have the airbag replaced. Bmw does not seem to be able to give me a time line. Over the last 3 months all they can say is "there is a shortage of parts" ''you will be notified when parts are received". How long is a reasonable wait to get the airbag fixed on a car that is driven daily?
My airbag has not been replaced and the dealer blames the supplier of the airbag. I am stuck and at risk as I drive from new orleans to _______ more than five hours away frequently.
We have been waiting over 9 months for bmw to fix this issue VIN: [xxx] year: 2008 make: bmw model: 328i sedan number of open recalls: 1 the federal safety agency recall number: opens new window takes away from VIN lookup section> 16v071 recall date: february 5, 2016 manufacturer recall number: na summary: driver's front air bag: during air bag deployment in an accident, the driver's front air bag module may produce excessive internal pressure that could cause the inflator to rupture. Safety risk: inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking the driver or other passengers, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. Remedy: due to the large volume of new inflators needed to repair vehicles, final owner notification letters will initially be issued by first class mail to owners of the highest risk registered vehicles, I.e., oldest models in highest absolute humidity areas (e.g., USA gulf states). As parts supply increases, all owners of affected vehicles will be notified by first class mail. When you receive your final letter, you should make an appointment with an authorized bmw center immediately so they can replace the driver's front air bag module.

Excessive time from notification to resolution, currently 7 months with no resolution. The federal safety agency recall number: opens new window takes away from VIN lookup section> 16v071 recall date: february 5, 2016 manufacturer recall number: na summary: driver's front air bag: during air bag deployment in an accident, the driver's front air bag module may produce excessive internal pressure that could cause the inflator to rupture. Safety risk: inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking the driver or other passengers, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. Remedy: your bmw center will replace the driver's front air bag module. However, due to the large volume of new inflators needed to repair vehicles, the necessary parts will not be immediately available. As a result, owners of affected vehicles will be informed of the recall in an initial notification letter. Once replacement parts become available bmw will send another notification letter to owners, beginning with older model year vehicles located in bmw's previously defined hah (high absolute humidity) region and expanding accordingly as more parts become available. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available
Takata recall passenger airbag off stays illuminated even while passenger is in the seat with seat belt on! Not safe!!!!
Takata recall bmw has yet to remedy the defect within a reasonable period of time. I received the recall letter in march 2016 and have not heard from them since on the status of the recall. I I also have contacted the local bmw dealership and have not heard back from them regarding my concern for the recall. I do not have another vehicle to drive and am increasing the risk on my life every time I am on the road.

The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v071000 (air bags); however the part to do the repair was unavailable.

The car's airbag failure warning light, and seat belt warning light started going off whenever someone sits in the passenger seat, indicating that there is no airbag/passenger seat belt function in the car. Dealer has diagnosed the problem as a failed passenger seat sensor mat and indicates that this is a common problem. Cars up until the 2007 model year have been recalled to fix the problem, but bmw has yet to extend the recall to the 2008 model year. Bmw still has not issued a recall, and I would like the federal safety agency to perform an investigation as this looks like the same problem as the federal safety agency campaign 13v‑564. The lights come on whether stationary or in motion, whether a passenger is in the seat or the seat is empty.
