| Description of the problem | Small crack has developed in the mat on the passenger side of vehicle and the air bag warning lamp is on. Nhtsa recall bulletin indicated there was a recall (reference number 08v384000) on the frontal air bags; however, the dealership said my vin number was not listed. Called bmw north america customer relations and they said the same thing. I believe bmw should assume responsibility for this repair since they have a recall on over 200,000 vehicles and i am experiencing the exact same problem. Estimated repair is $1,500. Thank you for your consideration. |
