| Much like the other complaints, i just copied and pasted this from another complainant. the passenger restraint system malfunction alarm came on the idrive. the dealer says that the vehicle is not covered under recall. however, the recall id #73368 exactly matches the description of my problem. therefore, we believe that our vehicle should be covered. please advise how to get this resolved as soon as possible so that i can get the car fixed. we are concerned because it's a serious safety issue when the front air bags will not come on in case of an accident. i went as far as to speak with bmw directly and they said it only goes to the 2004 models, and then to the 2006 models....yea, whatever. it's a safety recall, they should honor it, and bmw is completely inflexible when it comes to their customers. it's a shame not only will they not help, they want to charge over $1000 to the customer for a recall part. i'm trading my other bmw in on anything but another bmw and will drive my affected 530i until it reaches the scrap yard. *tr | |||
