Front Air Bag Sensor Control problems of the 2007 BMW 3 Series

The seat bag sensor is continuously on. There is no one in the seat. This started at about 65k, the car now has 106k. . . Is this dangerous to a passenger? of course, this seems to activate the seatbelt light also. . .

Passenger seat mat sensor has gone bad. This is the same type of recall as the takata recall but BMW says that this car isn't covered for that recall. Recall cost over $1000. 00 to repair for a airbag safety issue. Seems to extremely common in BMW's. Took car to BMW dealership and they confirmed the issue with the car. Spoke to Bmwusa directly and they won't cover repair.

Have had issue with my one of my 2 --- 2007 330i's dashboard light came on with a message "pass restraint system malfunction". A detailed message says "fault in passenger-restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter took it to the dealer and they said I need a new passenger seat air bag sensor with a replacement cost of over $1000,00. I recently learned BMW has had a problem with this part and has recalled 2006-2007 cars but any vehicle made after September 2006 is not on the recall list. Mine were manufactured Jan 2007. I've been informed that my vehicle has the same part as the recalled ones and believe that BMW should recall all their vehicles with this same passenger seat sensor problem.

I got in my car after driving it to the park & got a fault that said restraint system malfunction. Fault in passenger restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt- force limiter. I researched this & found that it is a problem with the sensor in the passenger seat mat. I found that this is a recall on my car & year, but when I call, they say it doesn't apply to my VIN. This has been a huge problem with a ton of owners. I've also read that most of the people call & complain & they'll end up fixing it under the recall. But, I'm having no luck. I'd understand if it was just me, but they've recalled it on the sane exact car & year as mine & I don't understand why mine wouldn't fall under this recall!.
