Takata recall I have received two notices concerning this situation over a year period, when I contacted bmw of manhattan after the first notice they said they would contact me once parts are received. It's been well over a year now and I have received yet another notice, still no replacement of new airbags.

Takata recall: I called the wayne, nj bmw dealership multiple times to replace the affected takata inflators airbags. Wayne bmw dealership stated they were unable to replace takata inflators airbags.
Takata recall it's been a couple years since the recall was announced and every time I call the dealership they tell me there are no parts. Now takata has filed for bankruptcy. This is getting absurd. What can I do to get this fixed?
There has been a recall on the front airbag and I've had a request to fix it for over a year now. Bmw keeps telling me they don't have the parts in. It is frustrating that this is a safety concern and bmw is not providing the parts to fix this.

I was driving on the freeway and alll of a sudden I received an audible and visual warning stating that the passenger restraint system malfunctioned. At the time, there were no passengers in the vehicle. This seems to be an occurring issue with bmw vehicles. I've had the same problem on two other vehicles.

I received a safety recall letter from bmw in regards to recall campaign no. 16v‑071 - driver's front air bag back in march 2016. It is now the middle of june 2017 and the bmw dealership still claims no parts on hand and no idea when they will be receiving them. This recall is taking way too long to complete. I have attempted to sale and trade the car in but no one wants it due to the recall.

Hello, I owned this bmw while residing on maui, hawaii. I have now shipped the vehicle home to alberta, canada and cannot get it approved throughout the riv program because of the airbag recall. We have not had an incident. We have been waiting on this repair for more than a year. Hawaii would be considered a high humidity area as well the year of the vehicle is getting to be older... I need to get the recall fixed as soon as possible so that I can get insurance and registration here in alberta. Please help!

Takata recall. I has been over a year since I have received the recall notice and bmw is doing nothing to fix my problem. I live in florida and have heard that salt air makes the problem worse, so I would expect people living by the ocean would get top priority.

Takata recall - despite multiple requests and promises for over a year, bmw has done nothing to address the defective airbag. Bmw continues to push the delivery date of the parts out.
Takata recall: it will be a year here shortly since the recall was issued and this airbag is not replaced. I know that bmw came up with another airbag for replacement of my drivers side airbag after I complained. There must be someway to fix this severe safety hazard. .I do not want anyone in my car front passenger seat to die because of this. Fyi the recall was issued in may 2016 I was not sent a notice until july 2016, poor notification. I am sure this length of time qualifies as a failure to fix in reasonable length of time.
