| Description of the problem | I purchased the 2006 bmw in 11/2009/ i had a notice online last month about the voluntary airbag re-call. The notice was in red on the top of my payment page. When i contacted the dealer about the condensation and mentioned this to them. Then i contacted the bmw and they said it is not one of the vehicles 30 days later. Recall# 08v384000.. This is very strange. Everytime i place my purse on the front passenger seat the light for the front-passenger airbag lights up. It only turns off when i remove my purse. Bmw states that my vehicle was not involved. I did not receive any notice except for the warning message on my account last month. I purchased the vehicle certified pre-owned in 11/2009. |
