Description of the problem	I received a recall notice from bmw in march 2016, warning of a dangerous defect in the driver's front airbag. My bmw center has not remedied the defect as of yet, oct, 2016, unreasonable. I am very uncomfortable driving this bmw, will not carry passengers and put them in danger. I do not have an alternate vehicle to drive to work. As always, i am an attentative, defensive driver. I cannot control the other crazy, stupid, careless, wreckless drivers out there. In july 2013, my 2009 audi a4 was t-boned, totaled, i suffered a severely broken collar bone, all while i was sitting stationary, at a red light. "at fault" driver making a left turn, giant suv driver who hit him and totaled my car, definitely speeding and probably texting while driving. My airbags deployed - thankfully no metal daggers shot out !!!! Please get on bmw about this! Before someone suffers "serious injury or death" !!!!!!! Thank you
