The Seats problem

I own a 2004 BMW 525i and the passenger side airbag and seat belt sign came on few weeks back. The dealer says it’s not covered but NHTSA site indicates it is covered on BMW 525i 2004 vehicles. This dealer is estimating a $650. 00 diagnostic fee to see what need to be done.   Read details...

The restraint light came on in my car and for some unknown reason the light will not reset. I know for a fact the dealership replaced the passenger side seat cover or something while under warranty, but this started around 2010 or 2011 not sure.   Read details...
