I have a warning light on during driving "passenger restraint system" malfunctions". BMW states there is a 10yr "warranty" (recall) on this issue but my VIN does fall in the series of VIN's. my year 2010 is not covered, yet I have the same issue many others have and I have to pay out of pocket for since this kills my resale value. BMW should have to replace and or fix all safety issue period.
