Tamara airbags. My car has both airbag lights on and there is no recall on it at all and it has not been in an accident at all. I received a warranty extension but with conditions.

Air bag light stays on, model and year id for recall, but not id under VIN number.
Airbag light illuminated on the dashboard. Manufacturer was informed but noted that the VIN doesn’t fall within the range of the recall. Manufacturer didn’t authorize the repair ($700 estimate). Recall 13v-564 is specifically for BMW/325i/2006/sport seat/airbag – my exact car and exactly the issue I’m experiencing. There are hundreds of BMW/325i/2006/airbag complaints. BMW customer relations refuse to help….
I took my car in for a standard oil change and front driver side light turning signal not working and I also advised the airbag light would come on when I turned on the car for the past few months. I was advised that the airg bag for the passenger side had to be replaced which would cost me more than 800 dollars. I questoned if it was part of the most recent recall but was advised no. Seeing all the complaints on this site of the same vehicle and issue and not being included, this does not make sense. Please advise how cars are picked as it seems the cars that were not notified are the ones that are having the exact or similar issue of what the recall is for. I recently moved as well so I'm wondering what happens if the letter if there was one was sent to the incorrect place.

The air bag light / occupant detect sensor needed to be replaced because it was defective. I paid over $1000 to repair. My mechanic told me there is a safety recall of the air bag frontal sensor control module for my vehicle year, make and model. I never received the recall notice and BMW claims the recall is VIN specific. This seems unsafe and unfair as this is the very problem that I repaired. I have traveled thousands of miles transporting my family in the front passenger seat without knowing that they were not protected by the air bags.
