Problems with 2006 BMW X3 AIR BAGS

When a person is sitting in the front passenger seat the "passenger airbag off" light comes on and the airbag light shows on the dash like the sensor isn't registering that someone is sitting there, then after a few minutes it goes off again and does this frequently.

On april 15 the vehicle was in a collision with severe front end damage. the tear down estimate was over $10,000. funny thing was the air bag did not deploy.

Bmw of dallas ,tx said passenger seat sensor mat back ordered, it has been over 6 months. we need to be able to use this seat safely. they said they would call when avail.

I am reaching out to you to see if you could help me. my husband and i have a bmw x3 2006 and got the letter for the recall on the airbag. i just not sure what i do now. it has been over a year and still have not got anymore information about the next step. i have called them and was told nothing much. do i need to call the bmw dealer and mover from there or just wait ? i just not sure what to do. thanks you for all your help and time.

The airbag light is on, there is a recall on airbag sensors. dealer wanted me to pay $170 first before they can look at the problem. i told them the airbag system has a recall on airbag sensors, but they refused to fix the problem or even diagnose the problem before i paid them $170.

Pertaining to bmw recall campaign 17v-605. this recall has been going on for more than two years and the manufacturer does not have any idea when parts will be available. the part in question is available for purchase from dealers. i don't feel that bmw is handling this recall properly, especially as it concerns passenger safety. the affected part is the passenger seat airbag sensor mat.

I received a recall notice in november 2017. i took my car to bmw myrtle beach for the repair in december 2017. they gave me a loaner while the work was being done. they later told me the repair could not be done because they had ordered the wrong parts and that the repair parts are not currently available. in april 2018 my wife was in a near fatal accident where she had to be airlifted to a hospital and was in icu for almost 1 week. the airbag in our toyota sienna saved her life. in the spring, i connected with the local bmw dealership, who referred me to bmw north america where i logged a complaint. i also requested a loaner until my airbag system could be repaired. they denied my request and for a loaner. they referred me to their website to read their policy and said recommended that i call the local bmw dealership for help. i asked them for a written position statement but they would not provide it for me. their recommendation was not to allow anyone to ride in the front seat. i purchased a 5-passenger vehicle and not allowing anyone to ride ...

The vehicle was sold to us with an airbag warning light activated. per our sales agreement dealer was to remedy the problem. when we took it back to their mechanic he stated there was an open recall for airbag and take it to a bmw dealer so they can replace the mat. that was last october and now over a year later my passenger side airbag is still not working properly. dealer is not concerned as i have called them several times and their response is " it is not our fault that it has taken so long for bmw to remedy the situation." so i am upset that it has been over a year and still no parts for the recall from bmw, as well as a dealer who got a car off their lot with a safety recall and took advantage of my not understanding the implications.

I received a recall notice on front passenger seat occupant detection mat from bmw approximately a year ago. the notice from bmw stated that they would replace the mat. to this date, they have not replaced it.
