Issue ID	765756
Internal NHTSA #	10310449

Component	AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I have a 2006 bmw 3 series that had a defective seat mat sensor. This defect led to the following indications in the vehicle: overhead air bag warning light illuminated, the red airbag light on the instrument panel illuminated, and the system check window (digital display between tachometer and speedometer) indicated a fault with the airbag. There is an active recall on this failure for 2006 3 series with sport seats, campaign number 08v384000. However, my vehicle's vin number is not included on the list that nhtsa and bmw negotiated. Bmw has denied my request to fix this problem at their cost. My vehicle is affected by the exact same problem that 200,000 other bmw? S had. There is a precedent for failure with the seat mat sensor. The cost to the consumer to correct this threat to safety is approximately $1400. Nhtsa should expand this recall list to cover all vehicles affected by this problem. This is a safety issue and the cost burden should not be passed on to the consumer in this case.
