On the dash board the loud warning light comes driver restraint system fault and passenger restaint system fault. I know that several 2002-2008 BMW 7-series got recalled regarding the same issue and manufacture offered 10 year warranty from in serive date regarding this issue. Mine is a 2004 745li and should be one of the recalled one. Called the manufacture and they sad the VIN number that my car has never have been recalled with this problem. The problem is on and I think the manufacture should take care of it. Is a shame to spend so much money for this vehicles and they can't offer a safe drive. Thanks.

Passenger safety systems fault / air bag / seat belt tensioner warning light has activated on my car. 2004 onwards models were recalled for this same issue. Can you please advise why all affected cars are not covered as this is clearly a model / year wide safety fault with the sensor mat or belt tensioner systems. BMW are taking no responsibility and put the problem of recalls onto NHTSA. Please help as I do not want to transport my family in an unsafe vehicle and cannot afford the $1800 repair while certain owners are having this taken care of by BMW under the recall.

The contact owns a 2003 BMW 745li . The contact stated that the alarm would activate on its own. In addition, the air bag and seat belt warning lights would illuminate on the instrument panel for no reason.

The dealer would not make any repairs because the warranty was expired. The failure and current mileages were less than 80,000.
On 8/9/02, my car's seat belt and air bag warning light came on. The dealer took the car on 8/12/02, and returned it 8/21/02. Mr. Moody of leith reported that the problem had not been resolved but awaited delivery of revised software in "a couple of weeks". While the warning message was no longer posted (they said they had merely emptied the memory), they could not assure me that the safety mechanisms were operating properly. I had them pick up the car again, and they still could not assure me that the equipment was working properly. I spoke with an field engineer at BMW (dan) who assurred me that the problem (error code 9388) was a false reading and that the safety devices were operating correctly. I asked that this be put in writing, given that I had already rec'd several differing interpretations. I have now requested written asurance 3 times (once in writing) and have not received such confirmation. Hence, I do not know if this safety equipment is operating. The dealer indicated that this problem has occurred in other 2002 7. 45i's.
