Two problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 2003 BMW Z4. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I took my car in to the beverly hills BMW regarding NHTSA campaign id no. 04v247000 and asked that the dealer/service center check out my air bag deployment processors as my vehicle was manufactured in June of 2003 and appears to be covered under this recall. They refused to perform the service saying that they had no record of the recall from BMW of north America. I then telephoned BMW of north America and asked about the recall. I spoke with "jason" and was told there was no record of the recall anywhere and that BMW would not check out my car or the air bag processors.
