2006 BMW Z4 Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1149069
Internal NHTSA #	10672748
Manufacurer	BMW of North America, LLC
Brand	BMW
Model	Z4
Model Year	2006
File date	01/10/13
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Front passenger air bag sensor warning light on - passenger air bag will not function in event of collision. Passenger air bag sensor warning code can not be reset. The car air bag system has never been activated by collision. The front passenger air bag warning light first appeared when starting the car in garage and is not associated with any collision events. It appears to be linked to similarly reported bmw models recalls involving the front passenger seat air bag sensor mat failures, which requires seat air bag sensor mat replacement. The problem is it is not clear if current air bag sensor mat recalls include and cover the bmw 2006 z4 passenger air bag seat sensor mat replacement. The car was purchased from bmw dealer as a pre-owned certified car under full warranty. The dealer would not address repairs under the current recalls. Need your help, there are not that many z4 on the road and the number of owner reported failures is likely to be a small number but this does not diminish the fact that the seat sensor mat in a z4 are the same equipment being recalled for other bmw models. Please extend the front passenger seat air bag sensor mat recall to include the 2006 z4 models. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
