1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/13/2020

I received a recall for the airbag on my car. I contacted BMW to replace but they were unable to replace at that time. I have tried to contact them since to arrange replacement and they have not returned my calls.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 12/09/2016

Takata recall hasn't happened. What is the problem. I guess if you wait we won't be able to complain after it kills us in an accident.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 04/06/2016

Takata recall, replacement air bags are not available. BMW has no idea when they will be. This is not right, I should not have to drive this car with this defect.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 02/05/2016

Takata recall - I have been waiting 2 years to have this recall done. I was once scheduled to get the service and then after I dropped off the car they called me back and stated that they didnt have the part in.

5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2016

I have been waiting for over one year for my recall to be performed by my local BMW service center. I received a letter stating it was going to be taken care of in may of 2016 (letter was dated March of 2016). I drive my car on a daily basis and run the risk of injury due to the defective airbag. I will not allow family members to drive my dangerous vehicle and now worried I have to sell my car. If I sell my car I shall divulge that there is a recall by BMW and that it has not been performed. I cannot drive this vehicle anylonger.
