I have 3 recalls on my vehicle. Two of them involve air bags and the the heat valve malfunction that could be very dangerous. I contacted bmw dealership and they mentioned they don't have any parts from bmw to fix two of them and have me on a waiting list for the third and will contact me, no time frame was given. I contact bmw north america and they direct me back to the dealership. So I'm driving a vehicle with 3 recalls and no time frame on when these will be fixed. I don't want anything happening while I'm in the vehicle since it is a 2007.

Recall campaign no. 17v‑605: front passenger seat occupant detection mat - no remedy available. Contacted bmw on 12/4/17 who advised they have no idea when one will be available. Advised to check back in six months. This has rendered my front passenger seat unusable once again (takata recall). This is unacceptable to leave customers in limbo for months and years in the case of takata. I have been unable to use my passenger seat on this vehicle for more than two years.

I was sold a car not knowing it was included in recall. I would like to proper steps to resolve the isssue.
Takata recall. Called to have an option for replacement as I received a letter that my vehicle was included in this recall. My closet bmw service center is over 200 miles away. When I called in to make arrangements to have a part sent to my city they told me I would have to pay for the shipment and the repair. My only option was to make arrangement and drive my car over 400 miles round trip for the repairs. There has to be a better option.
