Four problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 2009 BMW 328. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Sensor warning states passenger airbag and passenger seatbelt is not on.
Airbag system fault due to occupancy seat sensor p/n 65779153119. This sensor is used on BMW e90, e91, e92, e93 models from 2006-2012. BMW recalled only 2006 and 2007 models in 2014( recall notice 17v428) then revised in 2017 to include more vehicles. In addition, they issued a sb -10056703-9690 in 2017 to extend warranty to 15 years for this sensor. Since the exact sensor is fitted on vehicles from 2006-2012, and numerous individuals have reported the fault, I believe my e93 should be covered in the recall or the 15 year extended warranty. Based on research, many people have resorted to a bypass device. This extinguishes the fault but presents an issue if the front seat passenger is an infant/ or under 40 pounds. Airbags will deploy in case of an accident and death/ serious injury is possible.
I see there was a previous recall for earlier models involving the seat occupancy sensor mats cracking. My 2009 BMW 328i convertible car now has the warning airbag and seatbelt light on if anyone is in the passenger seat. This occurs whether or not I am driving or not. I had my car scanned and the error code is 93c3 passenger seat occupancy detector. I am now concerned if airbag and seatbelt will work in case of collision.
Recall 13v044000 electrical system car is still affected by this recall and unsafe for driving. Vehicle has been losing power, stalling, jerking, sensors faulty, recall16v071000 airbags unsafe hazzard my son was driving the vehicle and the lights and sensors started to go, the headlight went out on the highway, he managed to get into the emergency lane and the vehicle completly stalled. He had no light including hazards on a busy highway at night. He could have been killed losing power while driving especially on the interstate. This has happened on more than one occasion and needs to be repaired, or refunded by BMW immediately. My son is 23 years old and should not have to fear for his life whenever he drives his vehicle. BMW claims the recall work was done, but this vehicle is obviously not repaired as far as the electrical system. The vehicle has lost power while I was driving on the city streets. I was stalled at the stop light and had to leave the vehicle on the side of the road abandoned. The vehicle jerks and loses power every time it's driven now.
