Description of the problem	About june 1, 2011, my 2006 bmw 330i (sport seats) had a red airbag light illuminate. I took the car to the local bmw dealership and was told it would cost me a couple hundred dollars to diagnose the problem. The service manager asked if i recently changed batteries and i said that i did. He said sometimes the airbag light comes on if the battery wasn't installed properly. In 2014, i did some research and found that bmw knew of a problem with airbags in their 2006 330i vehicles- especially those with sport seats. The report i read stated that there would be a voluntary recall by the end of 2014. I contacted bmw and they confirmed, by email, there would be a recall for specific 2006 330i vehicles with sport seats. Upon checking a recall website, my vehicle was not included in the recall despite the fact that my vehicle suffers from the problem that initiated the recall. Bmw knows they have a problem with airbags in certain vehicles, they should be required to recall all of them.
