I took my vehicle to henderson BMW in Nevada regarding the takata airbag recall. They put an airbag in my vehicle that is not compatible with my sensors. Knowingly and deceitfully, they placed this airbag in my vehicle. Then, the airbag light came on and when I called, they said if its a sensor problem, we are not liable but if there is something wrong with the airbag we installed, then we will replace. There was no airbag light on when I took my vehicle in for the recall. I took my car back to henderson BMW in Nevada so that they could correct the problem and the light issue. They charged me $170 (I disputed this charge) to tell me it is a sensor problem, which they knew before they even installed this airbag. They now want me to pay 1200 to correct this sensor problem that they created in my vehicle, knowingly. They will not take responsibility for the damage they knowingly caused my vehicle. Further, before this recall, at least I had a decent chance in an accident. Now, they R risking my life and the lives of my passengers because with the airbag light on in the vehicle, the airbags will not deploy in the event of a collision. So, all the time I spent :(20 hours); the miles I spent (600 miles) the money I spent on gas (80); further, I am disabled and had to have someone take me to henderson, twice and now they have chosen their side, against the consumers who purchase their products and I have a problem that they are responsible for; however, they will not step up to the plate.

I am the original owner of a 2001 BMW 325xi vehicle. I live in the South. The passenger side only takata airbag was recalled by BMW and replaced with another takata airbag. The driver side airbag was not recalled. The passenger side airbag is not as close to a potential passenger, although BMW considered it very necessary to recall, but the driver side airbag is much closer to the driver, since it is behind the steering wheel. This makes no sense. Both airbags should have been and now should be recalled. I fear for my life or potential serious bodily injury. There has been no recall, nor is there an open recall on the driver side airbag, stated on the safercar.gov website, which I constantly check by using my VIN number. I urge you to order a recall on the driver side airbag at once. I have watched and will continue to watch the hearings. I have also contacted my government representatives and senators and taken notes on the hearings. Please continue your thorough work, but also please help me! updated 09/10/15

Recalled passenger air bag was replaced by dealer last week, but the dashboard light indicates the passenger air bag is turned off. The dealer says this was an existing problem and refuses to fix without charging several hundred dollars to "diagnose." I maintain this is directly elated to the recalled air bag and should be fixed without charge.

BMW contacted me in September announcing a safety recall of the airbags in my vehicle, indicating they required replacement and BMW would contact me to schedule the service for the recall. Over six months have passed with no action by BMW to correct this urgent safety defect. This is simply unacceptable. BMW needs to take action to correct this defect.
