Consumer Description

I RECEIVED 2 RECALL NOTICES REGARDING THIS CAR; THE AIR BAG RECALL WAS ISSUED ON 2/5/2016 AND THE FUEL PUMP RECALL WAS ISSUED ON 10/13/2016. NO ONE REPRESENTING BMW HAS CONTACTED ME YET TO HAVE THESE POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING ISSUES RESOLVED. I FEEL THAT BMW SHOULD ESCALATE THEIR RECALL RESOLUTION PROCESS TO FIXING THESE RECALLS WITHIN WEEKS, NOT MONTHS. IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG TO WAIT - ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING I AM ONE HEAD-ON CRASH AWAY FROM BEING KILLED BY FLYING SHRAPNEL FROM THE AIR BAG, OR HAVING MY CAR SEIZE SUDDENLY AT 65 MPH BECAUSE THE FUEL PUMP STOPPED WORKING. THESE RECALLS ARE NOT COSMETIC - THEY'RE VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES AND NEED QUICK RESOLUTION.
