general problems of the 2006 BMW 330 - part 1

I was getting ready to leave my home and both front airbags deployed on me, which also resulted in my windshield breaking. I did not hit anything with the vehicle. I then looked up the VIN and noticed the 2 open recalls one is for the airbags, I contacted BMW left the service manager numerous voicemails he never returned any of my calls. Then I contacted BMW north America, I got the vehicle towed to BMW of carslbad just before thanksgiving 2024 I just picked up my vehicle on January 6 2025 and they did not fix the recalls on the vehicle. I have been without a vehicle since before thanksgiving!! I have health issues and I am missing appointments. I am on a fixed income my husband just passed away. I need someone to help me I keep getting the run around. If there are open recalls they need to be fixed I don't understand.

My airbag light is on. I checked the website, and realize that there is a recall for takata airbags, however, when I input my VIN#, my vehicle does not show the active recall. There is an alert on the website that says "do not drive". . . . I cannot get any assistance from takata when I call; they keep telling me that my car is not included. I don't believe it is safe to drive my car, and can't get any help.

Takata airbag safety recall VIN:wbavd33546kv60407 I live in commonwealth of pennsylvania which according to BMW and NHTSA is zone b. My vehicle has a built date of 10/19/2005 330xi e90 model. The time in which the degradation to the propellant poses an unreasonable risk to safety is stated as a 10-15 year time frame. My car is almost 18 years old but BMW has not prioritized my vehicle's airbag. My VIN number might not have made the list for zone a but its in zone b. I should have to wait until someone gets killed or injured. My name is alvin harvey and can be reached at harvab@verizon. Net my BMW dealer is otto's BMW west chester, PA 610399-8067 please demand that BMW comply with the recall information listed on clearly on your NHTSA site and BMW of America's site. (site last updated 01/14/2019) thank you.

The contact owns a 2006 BMW 330xi. The contact stated that the air bags warning and seat belts warning lights illuminated intermittently. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the failure was related to NHTSA campaign number: 17v428000 (air bags) however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 123,100.

We took our recently purchased BMW 2006 330xi in for recalls and a few fixes. However, the BMW service center wasn't able to fix one of the issues through the recall process since it doesn't show up for our vehicle. However, everything that I read suggests that it was a recall for this make and model. We are not sure if it was supposedly addressed before we purchased the vehicle and it is now a reoccurring issue or it is a first-time issue. The airbag/seatbelt warning light is present for passenger seat occupancy detector faults. The BMW service center said it was the sensor in the front passenger seat and offered to fix it for $1000 plus. We opted to not fix it until we checked further into the situation. The light for the passenger airbag saying that it is off is currently lit, and the airbag/seatbelt light remains on at this time. Looking for more information on this issue.

Passenger restraint malfunction warning and passenger air bag turned off.

Passénger seat occupancy seat mat has failed and passenger air bag system does not work. Diagnosed recently- repair scheduled soon for cost of $1588. 35 it looks like there may have been a recall in 2017 but I don’t have any record of being notified or having it fixed.

Driver side stage 1 airbag malfunction occurring in my vehicle with a dash light. When I search my VIN for this recall, it does not show up. But it does show that there was a recall for 2006 BMW 330xi's and other 3 series. This problem needs to be addressed for every 2006-2011 BMW 3 series because it affected all of the cars. Why is this not being taken care of and why is it not a recall for my car as well as others that are complaining? this is a very bad safety feature that should be taken care of. Thank you, a person who drives a 2006 BMW 330xi, and deserves their car recalled.

Few miles after starting to drive error icon was shown on the display showing airbag icon and seatbelt icon. Was able to display the error code: cc-id 97. The front passenger seat was occupied. The car was in motion when the error was triggered, at about 25 mph on city streets.

There is a problem regarding the airbag warning lamp and the mrs system. Nhtsa recall 10025849 covers vehicles produced from 8/31/05 to 4/26/06. My car was produced in 6/2006 (just two months later) and is having the same problem but is not covered by the recall.

Takata recall airbags in houston, texas, on November 10, 2018, I was driving my 2006 BMW 330ci convertible, and when upon entering at 40 miles per hour an entrance ramp from tomball parkway onto beltway 8, I suddenly noticed a metal pole that was resting in the middle of the highway, in an attempt to avoid it, I braked and when the car became stationary, the driver and passenger takata recall airbags did �not� fully inflate which seemed to function with a �safety-related defect. � moreover, I strongly believe recall 15v318000 and recall 14v348000 that were installed at momentum BMW on March 9, 2018 which replaced my takata recall airbags with another set of takata recall airbags contained a �safety-related defect. � as a consequence, I suffered a concussion and eye-related bodily injuries from the crash. In addition, on December 10, 2108, BMW of north America sent an engineer to houston, texas to inspect my vehicle, but the company will �not� provide me the data analysis of its findings, and it claims that the company owns that proprietary data. My vehicle is clear of liens and is paid-off. Moreover, on January 10, 2019, the company stated in a letter that the takata recall airbags fully deployed; however, this is a false statement because the takata recall airbags did �not� fully deploy, and my passenger and I were shocked of this malfunction. As of today, BMW of north America confirmed that the takata recall airbags were replaced with another set of takata recall airbags. Why were these airbags not replaced with an alternative safety equipment supplier? in closing, can federal safety officials inspect my vehicle in houston, texas because BMW of north America is �hiding� the data analysis from me? I am submitting a police report and photos of the crash, so I look forward to your response.

Air bag recall.

I got several recalls regarding my BMW 330xi 2006 airbag. The airbag recall mentioned the airbag system failing to work. Called an authorized dealer, the dealers said the part has not yet been available.

Takata recall - I've called multiple times in the past year and stopped by the local dealership to get my name on the list about 2 months ago. I can not get an appointment to replace my air bag.

Metal fragments from airbag.

Passenger restraint system. Fault in passenger-restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter. The airbag stays off even after having a passenger on the front passenger seat. I also get a seatbelt sign even if the seatbelt is worn by the passenger. Went to dealer asking for $200 to check problem and $500 to repair.

Air bags: passenger occupant classification system malfuctions anytime the passenger seat is occupied.

I had both air bags replaced under the takata recall and now I'm getting a "passenger restraint system malfunction" error on my display. There is an open recall NHTSA campaign id number: 08v384000 that is for the same issue and for my model and year but the VIN is not showing that recall. The error happened just when the car was started and it shows whether someone is sitting in the passenger with the seatbelt on or if the seat is empty. I am worried that the airbag won't deploy in the case of an emergency. Please let me know if this would be included in the recall as well for a safety issue. I've called BMW and was told this would not be covered either.

Takata recall. This is taking way too long to resolve for affected BMW vehicles.

Takata recall I was told by BMW north America that the only remedy for the airbag recall was an interim remedy of replacing with the same airbag, but a new one. Does the NHTSA stand behind this interim remedy as a solution to the safety hazard this airbag by takata represents? I am not driving the car now out of fear for my safety and have tried to sell it back to the local dealership, with no luck. They don't want it either. Do I have any legal recourse to be compensated for loss of use and/or inability to resale the auto??.
