All Air Bagssensoroccupant Classification Complaints
The contact owns a 2007 BMW 328i. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the air bag sensor warning light illuminated, whether a passenger was seated in the seat or not. The contact stated that the air bag warning light remained illuminated even without a passenger seated in the seat. The contact was unable to reach the local dealer. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V564000 (Air Bags) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 188,000.
MY VEHICLES PASSENGER AIRBAG IS DEACTIVATED AND MY PASSENGER SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT AS WELL AS THE RED AIRBAG MALFUNCTION LIGHT STAY ON NO MATTER WHAT EVEN WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND WHETHER THE CAR IS MOBILE OR STATIONARY, I WAS TOLD IT'S DUE TO THE PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SENSOR THAT HAS DETERIORATED OVER TIME ,I ALSO HAVE READ THAT RECALLS WERE MADE FOR THE ISSUE BUT NOT FOR THE COUPE FOR SOME REASON ,WHICH I DONT GET MY CAR HAS THE STANDARD SEATS IN IT AND IS MADE WITH THE SAME EXACT PART THAT WAS RECALLED ON OTHER MODELS WHY IS MY CAR EXCLUDED WHEN THE SEDAN AND WAGON OF THE SAME YEAR WERE INCLUDED?
PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE SEAT MAT IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING THE AIR BAG TO NOT READ CORRECTLY THE PASSENGER WEIGHT AND POSSIBLY DEPLOYING WITH A CHILD IN THE SEAT. THE LIGHT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES. THERE ARE RECALLS OUT FOR OTHER BMW AUTOS FOR THIS SAME REASON 17V-428 - THIS MODEL AND YEAR WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL LIST BUT IS ALSO CARRYING A DEFECTIVE PART.
I HAVE DONE THE MOST RECENT 3 RECALLS ON MY BMW, I NOTICED THROUGH KREDIT KARMA THAT IT CLAIMS A FOURTH ONE FOR THE DETECTION MAT ON THE PASSENGERS SEAT AIR BAG SYSTEM. I DID MENTION THIS RECALL TO BMW WHEN I RECENTLY VISITED FOR THE 3 MOST RECENT RECALLS, BUT THEY CLAIMED IT WAS NOT AFFECTED. THE ALERT OF THE MALFUNCTION ONLY SHOWS WHEN PASSENGER IS SEATED, IT CLEARS AFTER TURNING OFF IGNITION, BUT ONCE BACK IN PASSENGER SEAT, IT MALFUNCTIONS ONCE AGAIN. I WOULD JUST LIKE SOME CLARIFICATION ON THIS IF POSSIBLE. THANK YOU.
