My warning light "fault in the passenger restraint system" illuminated when I turned the car on. Has not come off.
Passenger restraint failure warning came up on my 2007 525i. This has been a problem on previous models but after taking my vehicle into the dealership they informed me it would not be covered and would cost me roughly $2000 to repair. This is a severe safety issue as nobody can ride in the passenger seat. This should be covered with the other vehicles.
Hello, my 2007 BMW 525xi has an error with the airbags and passenger restraint system. I was told there is a recall but BMW says I dont have one currently my airbags will not deploy in the case of an accident and BMW does not want to cover. Please help. Rgds.
Started the engine. Passenger sat in vehicle. The passenger restraint system failure light appeared on screen. I thought it was a glitch. The light appeared on and off for several weeks. Went to an independent mechanic and told that it was the seat mat or sensor and the cost would run around 1500 at the dealer. Was told to check to see if there was a recall. Checked on the website and there was no recall but many complaints about the same problem occurring for the 2006 vehicles.
Warning message for passenger side air bag malfunction. Took to dealer and told it was the seat sensor. I did not replace it because it was way to much money. There are tons of complaints about the same thing happening to people with this car. Prior year cars have been recalled for the same issue. It sure seems like this year car has the same problem. Please help all of us BMW owners out. Thank you!.
The contact owns a 2007 BMW 525i. The contact was driving at an unknown speed and attempting a right turn when another vehicle crashed into the contact¿s vehicle. The rear driver and passenger¿s side seat belts malfunctioned. The contact was thrown forward as the lap belt cut into her stomach. A police report was filed. The contact had to endure surgery to repair the damage to her stomach caused by the seat belt. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The VIN was not available. The failure and current mileage was unknown.
Passenger seatbelt light is on at all times. According to dealership it is the seat mat sensor. Hardly anyone rides with me in the car, this should not have broken and should have been covered by the manufacturer warranty. Dealer provided an estimate of $1,265. 34 to replace it. A total scam.
