Yikes. All 3 of my cars might be recalled depending on affected Vin.

takata is a shitty company, I know this is old news but I'm still baffled. They should no longer exist.

2007–2013 3-series and M3 coupe and convertible Could more clearly be written: 2007–2013 3-series coupe/convertible and M3 coupe/convertible Because the F30 is a sedan and the recall only covers 3 Series sedans through MY2011. |

FML another recall eh? Think that ups the total to four for my E88.
This'll be the first time it's been to an actual BMW dealer in about half a decade hah!

The passenger airbag occupancy sensor failed about 4 months ago on my 2007 Z4 M Roadster. BMW is replacing them through 2006 only, and told me too bad when I contacted them. This sucks in my opinion

Usually takes a month or so for it to show up on DCS and on that link -
So now I have to get this handled on my E46 and my E90... I'm glad the Fxx are not affected. |

Here are the factory recall notices, FYI:
This also means that dealerships can not sell any new or pre-owned cars without performing this recall beforehand. I suspect a parts shortage will follow. |

I wish I could know what supplier provided the airbag for my '14 320 and if it's just a matter of TIME before any car with a Takata bag using the questionable propellant is recalled! Noticed a sweeping recall of Mercedes models, but strangely enough the GLK was one of few models NOT recalled... Comforting, somewhat since I DD one. |

Does anyone know if a possible reason for the recall, in addition to pieces of metal, etc., was due to airbags deploying inadvertently? Has anyone read or heard that? Just curious.

Waiting for the letter. I bet it takes at least 6 months to a year for this to play out and meanwhile it makes hard to trade the car in.
