general problems of the 2009 BMW 335

2009 BMW 3 series with factory optioned sport steering wheel has no recalls, but still has a 2017 production takata psdi-5 airbag with the yellow sticker. This airbag was replaced during the interim period, before the revised design was released. It was manufactured in 2017, but used the same design as the original. This airbag is now 9 years old, and I fear it has the same shrapnel risk as the original unit replaced in 2017. East bay BMW did not take my concern seriously when I made an appointment, citing the fact that there were no recalls for my VIN. There was no inspection performed. The only option I have is buying a used airbag with a 2018+ production date and white sticker. I would like reassurance that my airbag won't kill me, or some help from the manufacturer.

The contact owns a 2009 BMW 335i. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 20v017000 (air bags); however, shortly after the vehicle was retrieved, the air bag warning light illuminated and remained illuminated. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 102,000.

My car randomly started throwing an error for a failure with the passenger restraint system. From what I have read it has something to do with the oc3 mat in the seat that detects if there is an occupant, and if the weight of the occupant is considered to be that of an adult, so the airbag does not deploy in the wrong circumstances, which is potentially dangerous to anyone that may ride in the passenger seat. There has been an extended warranty, and recall for previous years of e90 Bmws, but 2009 may not be included, even though the seats should be the same. I plan on contacting the dealership for further investigation, but I know I cannot afford to have this safety feature fixed out of my pocket at this time. Thank you for your time.

I turned my car on an out of nowhere a seatbelt and airbag light came on. I did not get into a bump up or disconnect any sensors it just popped up one day.

Randomly while driving and sometimes when stationary my car's electrical system started going haywire including my gauges and the passenger airbag as well some other safety features with tthe seatbelt were disabled with & without a passenger in the car. I keep getting a warning screen that tread as follows: "restraint system malfunction. Fault in passenger-restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter. Continue to wear the safety belt. Have the system checked by the nearest BMW center. " after looking online it is a common problem but for some reason my VIN isn't included on the recall.

I was driving on the interstate when my car started to lose acceleration. I could not accelerate up an incline. Then I heard a rattling. The next exit was a rest stop and as I was exiting my vehicle failed and shut down. I had no power at all. I coasted to a parking stall and turned the vehicle off after parking it safely. When I opened the hood the vehicle was not hot or smoking so I tried to start it. The car started but with a very loud knocking and rattling so I shut it off again and phoned the dealership. I towed the vehicle to the dealership over 30 days ago and have not been contacted by them not 1x. I have called weekly to no avail.

Passenger seat restraints system malfunction. Fault in passenger-resteaint system affecting airbag, belt-tensioner or belt-force limiter.

After a personal investigation into this issue, BMW seems to still deny that my model has the same issues described in the recall. "restraint system malfunction!" appears on the car every 20 seconds frighting drivers and passengers the airbags and seatbelts might not work. This is an american car curently in canada.

Takata recall it has been over a year and still the old air bag has not been changed. . . High humidity and temperature zone a priority.

Takata recall I was notified of the airbag recall on my car and called the dealership to get a rental car. I was first denied this request until I called BMW customer service and they contacted the dealership to approve the rental. It has been months and the dealership called and said they had my replacement airbag so upon dropping the car off at the dealership I asked if this was the newly designed airbag and was told that it was the same defective design but was safe because they are essentially "resetting the clock. " so instead of correcting the defect, I simply got a newer defective ¿safety device¿ put in my vehicle that would have to replaced again. I called BMW customer service again to inquire about a vehicle buy back which they are required to do by law if they cannot correct a recall. I was told that based on the age of my vehicle they would not buy it back. I don¿t see how this is legal and would like this investigated. If a manufacturer is required by law to repair my car and cannot do so, they should be forced to refund my purchase price or swap it out for a comparable vehicle. The fact that BMW is not doing so is illegal and they should be held accountable.

I received a recall notice from BMW about 10 days ago regarding the air bag recall. However, BMW is not providing a firm solution or date to fix the problem due to lack of parts. I emailed BMW to provide a timeline for the repair and to seek advice if the vehicle should be parked until the air bags are fixed. To date I have not received any responses from BMW. It appears that and BMW is not taken the matter seriously and I hope that it's not the case with NHTSA. The recent event of another death in TX as a result of the air bag should cause this agency to be more vigilant in requiring BMW to immediately fix the problem or provide a solution in the meantime. I would like NHTSA to require BMW to remove the air bags immediately until replacements are available, or provide a free loaner while I store my car until the air bags are fixed. As far as I am aware, american Honda is on top of the air bag issue while BMW is nonchalantly sitting around waiting for the parts to become available. The magnitude of this air bag issue coupled with BMW's blatant disregard for the safety of their cars' owner should be a concern to and a top priority for this agency.

I received a recall notice from BMW (recall campaign no. 16v-071) a year ago. The recall notice informs me that the airbag can rupture in an accident and send metal fragments to the driver (myself) and other passengers. This is a concerning safety issue that still has not been addresses and resolved by BMW. The recall notice advises me that there are no parts available to resolve this recall and that BMW will advise me when there are. Since it has been a year since this notice, this is now reaching an unreasonable amount of time that a consumer should have to wait for resolution on a safety issue such as this. I would like BMW to provide me with a loaner BMW vehicle or like model until they correct and resolve this isssue. Jaime aguirre agui27x@gmail. Com (951) 212-7426.
