Warning Light On Problems of BMW 530

Passenger seat sensor faulty, airbag disabled. Faults are showing, and warning lights are on. I have called the dealer and BMW USA, both acknowledge an issue but insist my car is not covered. The VIN is not on their roster. BMW recalled 200,000 cars for this problem, in the same year and model. I now have the issue, and it is a clear safety concern for any who might ride in the car.

Recall 17v-xxx front passenger air bag seat occupancy sensor mat b65 10 17. Last July 2017 my passenger seat airbag/seatbelt warning light was on and cause was faulty passenger seat occupancy detection mat. . It was replaced at the charlottesville BMW dealer on July 18 2017 for $867. 05. Yet this 2006 model is specifically the model with the defect and in the recall. My VIN is not showing that I am eligible for a recall, I do not understand this, as obviously it should have been covered, since this is the specific defect for which the recall has been issued, and this is the specific year and mode BMW which has the defect appearing.

A passenger airbag warning light has been on in my wife's 2006 BMW 530i for the past year. Despite the NHTSA recall campaign (action number ea08001 and pe07045), BMW says this car is not covered by the recall and will not fix the problem. I also have a 2006 BMW 530i with the same airbag warning light on. BMW will fix my problem. It seems that my car has "comfort seats" while my wife's car has "sports seats. " obviously, the defective part is present on both vehicles as well as on the other BMW models and years identified in your recall campaign. Why did your recall stop short of fixing all problems?.

Passenger airbag sensor. Warning light system failure.

While driving alone the airbag warning light came on and the airbag light above the passenger seat went off indicating the airbag was on, but no one was riding with me. Also, the seatbelt light came on and the alarm sounded but no one was sitting in the seat. After picking up a friend, the passenger airbag lights were gone until I had drove about 15 minutes and then the airbag warning lights began to act up again. I called BMW and was told that my vehicle was not included in the airbag recall and I could get the repairs done and save my BMW dealer receipts in case one day it would be covered. I couldn't afford the $1200 so my car has not been fixed yet.

A warning light for the airbag system in my vehicle came on so I took the car to an authorized BMW repair shop to have problem fixed. They told me that there was a recall on this item and to contact the local BMW dealership to have them address the issue. When I contacted the local BMW dealer and explained the problem, they checked my VIN and said it wasn't affected. I subsequently looked up safety recall info on this site and viewed ea08-001 along with pe07-045 and the associated letter from BMW north America dated July 18, 2008 I called my local BMW dealer once more and provided them this new information where I feel my car is applicable under this recall. Once again, they said that my car was not affected and I should contact BMW north America, which I did. The customer service rep for BMW checked my VIN and said, sorry but my vehicle wasn't affected. I disagreed with her and asked to speak to a manager regarding this recall. I spoke to the manager and explained that I was having trouble understanding why my vehicle was not affected, especially since my vehicle clearly is experiencing the failure and falls with the inclusive dom for the subject vehicles regardless of VIN. She explained the process and stated the that she was sorry but my car wasn't affected, the recall was closed and there was nothing that could be done about it anyway. She suggested that if still have an issue to contact your office and file a complaint. I would like have someone look into this complaint and consider reopening it based upon the above. I feel that there are perhaps other owners who may be experiencing the problem as well, especially since the BMW letter states in para. 4 "the % of vehicles est. To actually be affected by this issue is unknown" this is a safety issue identified by BMW and I feel that they should be responsible for repairing the airbag issue on my vehicle.

A dash warning light, on my 2004 BMW 530i appeared last week while regular driving. The warning light states "malfunction with front passenger air bag, not working properly, wear seat belt and have your car serviced". I found out that there was a safety recall for the front passenger airbag malfunction in 2008. I contacted my BMW service center and they stated that my vehicle did not qualify for the repair of the defaulty airbag because my vehicle VIN#. The safety recall is on 5 series BMW for the year 2004 and 2005. My vehicle front passenger air bag is definitely malfunctioning and all I request is for the repairs to be made at no cost to me from the BMW center.

Approximately three years ago, the warning light came on indicating that the passenger side airbag was not functioning. I have attempted to have this repaired under the recall notice id# 73368 - airbags: frontal, but have been refused by the local dealer and by the phone support at BMW. This is a safety hazard and should be repaired by BMW.

Ongoing problems with passenger airbag and seatbelt warning lights illuminating. When lit, those systems are deactivated. BMW dealer replaced oc3 mat [recall] apparently twice. Problem recoccurred. Dealer replaced positive battery cable [recall]. Pass airbag and seatbelts have illuminated multiple times since. Dealer blamed low battery voltage, wanted to sell me a battery. I refused. They tested with a "good" battery. Dealer now states sgm module is defective due to code 93f9. If that is true I believe the sgm has been damaged due to problems with oc3 mat and battery cable causing fluctuating voltage and damage to sgm, probably the capacitor that stores electricity. If you search online for 93f9 fault code you will see it is a common problem with BMW.

I just bought a 2004 BMW 530i with only 27,000 miles but that passenger side sensor that detects whether the seat is occupied was not functioning so the airbag warning light was on. We had to pay close to a thousand dollars to install a new sensor. My complaint is to know why a manufacturer is not responsible to make sure the supplemental restraint system is working properly when the car is so new. BMW north America was very evasive when contacted but the car was out of warranty that had expired five months ago.
