I brought my 325ci into BMW buena park to have an airbag recall completed. There were no issues prior to dropping the car off at dealership but when the car was returned the airbag system light was on and was filled with error codes. I returned the car to the dealer and they cleared the codes but on my way home the dash light returned and faults were present after taking to 2 independent specialists. I returned to the dealer and spoke to service manager who said they would review and let me know their findings. They never responded and left me with a car that is now unsafe to drive. I believe this is the result of poor workmanship in addressing an NHTSA recall and has turned a potential safety concern into a real one. I have contacted BMW USA about this as well.
2002 BMW 325 I. Consumer writes in regards to airbag safety recall.
I got a notice in the mail for an airbag recall. I called the number (877-225-0472) in early December. I was told to call fremont BMW (510-360-5902) the first question they asked was: did you buy your vehicle from us? I told them that the car is not currently registered. They told me to schedule a tow on my mobile phone. I don't have a mobile phone. The notice said that some of the dealers have mobile service where they come to your house. They said they would get back to me. That was over a month ago. I don't think BMW is taking this recall seriously.

I have made several appointments with swickley PA dealership to fix the problem with no success. They never show up or call to cancel . They set up 3 rental car delivery days never came. I've been dealing with this problem for about a year now. I've even said don't worry about rental jus to hurry and get done and they still don't come. I've called off for this several times and still it's not done. Since I've been fired because of this and still not fixed. The last time I called the shockley dealership said now they won't do it because I'm unhappy with there service. I really would like the problem remedy before someone gets hurt from the recall. I am a single father of 2 and I really can't afford for me or kids to b injured in automobile accident from inside the car. A small accident can cause serious damage from what I understand. I am going to try to contact better business bureau next.
On September 7, 2018 I lend my car to my son so he could run some school related errands he needed to attend to. That day he had also taken my daughter with him as they were going to have lunch after he had finished all of the errands he had to do for that day. Around 3:10 p. M. My son got into an accident which had caused both front airbags to deploy. Soon after the accident a noticeable cut was noticed on my daughter left cheek which was caused from the air bag deployment.

Takata recall. We are under recall 17v047. For four months, we have been calling and doing on-line chats with BMW of mobile (mobile, alabama). Every call or chat ends with them asking for our phone number and email address. They say they will contact us shortly with info on when or if the recall can be done. They have never once called or emailed us back. I can understand that it might take a while, but they could at least let us know what is going on while we are driving this dangerous car. Is there anything we can do about this, or do we wait and be ignored until something really bad happens? aren't they required to honor this recall?.

Takata recall hello, I'm at my BMW service center now (BMW of fairfax) to have service done on my car. I received notification of the takata air bag recall and notified the service center as to when I can get my air bags fixed. They could not give me a definitive time line. I went to the service center today to have regular service done on my car and again they could not give me an exact time line. They said, "maybe a year but we're not sure. " I also asked if BMW is still offering their car rental program until the issue is resolved but the service center said BMW is no longer offering this. I'm concerned that the service center does not want to perform the work as I'm sure this is at a major cost to them.
