4 Side/window Air Bag problem of the 2011 BMW 335

Failure Date: 01/02/2018

On 2/5/2016, BMW issued a recall for the driver's front air bag (recall campaign no. 16v-071). I wasn't even notified about the recall! I happened to see this open recall in July 2017 after I received a recall for the rear driveshaft constant velocity joint (recall campaign no. 17v-067). It took almost 2 years for the driver's air bag recall to be fixed (it was finally made available to me in December 2017). Within a few months of getting the driver's side fixed, the passenger side air bag seat sensor malfunction light came on while I was driving the vehicle! I've spoken to BMW's service department & authorized BMW mechanics regarding the air bag sensor mat failing & was told it was a very common problem. That it was so common, the waiting list to replace/fix the malfunction will take 1-2 years (or longer). This malfunction has been recalled on previous BMW models�the recall needs to be issued on 2011 BMW's as it is still a major safety issue!.

5 Side/window Air Bag problem of the 2007 BMW 335

Failure Date: 09/18/2017

Dealer only replaced driver's side airbag, stating passenger airbag replacements not yet available. Then took my vehicle off the recall list, so now they claim that the vehicle is no longer under recall. I have two BMW's that have this recall and the passenger airbag replacements are outstanding with no prospect of replacement, leaving passengers at risk of injury or death.
