Three problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 2013 BMW X3. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The passenger sensor mat linked to the air bag system is repeatedly malfunctioning. It is of the same design as previously recalled sensors in other BMW models. It is a safety hazard and should also be recalled.
As with other BMW's, these too have faulty occupancy sensors which should not be going bad across other lines. There is no reason this vehicle should not be included in the recall for exactly the same reason as others are recalled for faulty sensors.
This message just keep popping up on the screen "passenger restraint system malfunction. " passenger airbags indicated as off even the passenger seat is occupied. I had contacted BMW customer relations, and there was a recall for airbag sensor issue but not including the model X3.
