Drivers front seat active head restraint deployed. Fault code 930958 stored. Generator for active head restraint needs to be replaced. Vehicle was in garage, when started the error was displayed and is displayed ever time the vehicle is started. This exact part was recalled on my 2013 328i auto. It should be recalled on the 2015 X3 as it is the same part and is defective. Thanks.
