1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 05/30/2016

Takata recall. I was involved in a minor, slow speed accident where my vehicle rear-ended the vehicle in front. The airbags deployed with such force that both front passenger windows were blown out and the windshield cracked. I suffered partial hearing loss as a result. Vehicle was moving at approximately 15-20 mph on a highway at the time.

2 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2013

The rubber seal around the frond windshield cracks and falls/flies off. I have had this happen on 2 different (2006, and 2010 with only 17000 miles) BMW 3 series. I have spoken to BMW and was told this is not a warranty item. Please look into this. It could a defective part that could cause great risk. Thanks.
