The airbag light and seatbelt light came on and remain on. Auto shop referred me to bmw to have recall on passenger mat sensor error. Bmw dealership tells me the recall had been performed on 7/3/2009, so it is not covered and I need to pay repair prices. From my understanding, passenger airbag will not work now.
