Consumer Description

I HAVE A PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM FAULT AFFECTING AIRBAG, BELT TENSIONER. MY CAR HAS SPORT SEATS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN A PREVIOUS CAMPAIGN DUE TO THE SEAT MAT SENSOR FAILURE. MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. BMW QUOTED ME A REPLACEMENT SEAT MAT USING THE SAME RECALLED PRODUCT FROM 2013 AND 2006. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS A SEAT BELT MALFUNCTION CODE AND THE SEAT MAT SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. THIS WENT DEFECTIVE AT 84,000 MILES ON THE CAR. AS A RESULT, THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH BECAUSE THE SEAT DOES NOT DETECT AN OCCUPANT WITH THE SEAT BELT MALFUNCTION!
