Description of the problem | The passenger side "airbag is deactivated" lamp stays on constantly and the warning lamp on the communication system tells me i have a fault in the passenger side airbag. I was told by a bmw rep that this would be a safety recall eventually if i wanted to wait or i could pay $1400 now out of pocket and have it fixed. The bmw rep told me just not to let anyone ride in the front seat with me. That is very awkward as i am in sales and occassionally must transport customers. |
