Passenger seat mat sensor on 2007 mini cooper faulted. there was a recall on bmw and mini coopers except for this base model. dealer said it would be $1800. to fix i would think the parts for this car are the same. should be recalled.
The seat sensor for the passenger airbag was replaced once under a recall. after 2 years, it has failed again. the dealer stated that there is only a two year warranty on teh part. it is a safety issue that makes the care unsafe and unusable.
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 mini cooper. while driving, the passenger air bag warning indicator remained illuminated. the contact was concerned that the air bag might not deploy in the event of a crash. the vehicle was taken to mini of bedford (located at 209 s river rd, bedford, nh 03110, (833) 785-4497) where it was diagnosed that the air bag sensor needed to be reprogrammed. the contact also was informed by the technician that the passenger seat would need to be replaced if they removed it to reprogram the air bag sensor. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure and provided a case number. the approximate failure mileage was 92,000.
Airbag warning light and seat bell light remains on entire time. there have been recalls on 2009 and earlier models but not 2010's, however it's the same issue. i recently purchased the car however the original owner had the replaced in 2015 but now the lights are back on.

Passenger occupancy sensor is malfunctioning leading to the passenger airbag being disabled while in motion. a person sitting in the passenger seat triggers the airbag sensor warning and disabling of the airbag. while the person is sitting in the passenger seat, the warning can come on and off, and the error does not occur while the seat is unoccupied. the occupancy sensor mat needs to be replaced yet it is not available to be sold separately and requires replacing of the entire seat cushion (cost prohibitive) and is not covered under warranty. the 2012 mini cooper model is not covered by the mini recall for the same exact issue which has affected thousands of vehicles.
Airbag passenger light stays on when a passenger is in the seat and also stays on when is nobody in the passenger seat . and the passenger light turns on in the rpm gage (in the rpm gage )
When you turn on the car the airbag sensor light coming on and off randomly on my dashboard and the yellow passenger airbag warning signs on the top of the car also coming on and off, sometimes it disappear while the car is running sometimes it doesn't. i called mini cooper local dealer, no recall noted including in your website.
Passenger airbag off light on when passenger (over 25lbs) is sitting in passenger seat. as is the seat belt warning light in speedometer gauge. also srs red warning light shows on tachometer gauge. these warning indicators are "on" regardless of whether vehical is idle (not moving) or when at speed( in motion)
Passenger side air bag, when a person is sitting in the seat, the air bag sensor indicates the air bag is not on.
