4 Warning Light On problem of the 1999 BMW 323

Failure Date: 12/19/2019

I received a safety recall notice - remedy unavailable from BMW. The airbag warning light has been activated on the dashboard since December 19, 2019. The notice read that "it is also possible that the airbag housing may explode and could cause metal fragments to pass through the air bag cushion material, striking the driver or other occupants which may result in injury or death. " I spoke with BMW customer relations and was told that I could continue to drive the vehicle. I will not drive the vehicle until this problem is remedied nor should I be expected to. It has been more than five months since I received the original notice and there is still no date given for the expected remedy. I believe that BMW should provide me with a replacement vehicle until such time as a remedy is available. Why hasn't a stop driving order been issued by BMW if this problem could result in the death of the driver? what recourse do I have?.

6 Warning Light On problem of the 1999 BMW 323

Failure Date: 12/17/2003

I believe that carmax sold me a lemon. It is a 1999 BMW 323ci, was purchased used at the independence boulevard store on Nov 28, 2003, with 57,097 miles. The purchase price was $21,420 including a $1,699 extended warranty for 3yrs/36000. Automobile warranty agreement number: 7106508410. Since shortly after purchase, there have been excessive and expensive defects, including safety items. The car has broken down, failed to start, required towing, and the control panel flashes spurious warnings. Despite the warranty, and despite my requests to carmax, critical repairs have not been performed. Safety defects still occur and are not being repaired by carmax (I. E. Current control panel warning for lights). Major mechanical items are not being performed under warranty (e. G. Transmission). This has all occurred in less than a year, and with less than 5,000 miles of my driving. Summary of repairs since purchase: 12/17/03 57,561 mi. Air bag light fault, seat belt, electrical & control panel 12/23/04 57,694 rear defroster, electrical, window replaced, worn brakes 06/04/04 59,565 horn replaced, fuses & electrical 9/10/04 61,230 clutch replaced, warning lights, control panel failure light intermittently comes on (has not been fixed) the car is currently unsafe to drive. . . Reference the control panel warning indicator that carmax cannot analyze nor repair. The history of safety problems include fuses, air bag, electrical system, and horn. Summary: I was sold a "lemon" and have an unsafe automobile. I require a safe car to drive, and I want to stop paying for repeated defects and breakdowns. Recommemded solution: I suggest that either: (a) the car be returned for a full refund, including reimbursement for the cost of all defects, or; (b) I be reimbursed for all defects and that the terms of the 30 day warranty be extended to November 29, 2006.
