2004 BMW 325CI Seats Problems

“While driving my 2004 Bmw 325CI sport down the road smelled something burning, looked down my heated seat caught fire, burnt my leg, almost wrecked trying to get off the highway. Now my seat has a huge burnt hole in it and cant use seat heaters. Both passenger and drivers seat are doing the same thing!!!! My car only has 45000 miles on it. This needs to be a recalllll!!!!!”

“After recalled air bags replaced, about 6 months later new air bag sensor light came on and diagnosed as passenger seat air bag sensor mat needs to be replaced. Just randomly the light came on and stayed on. I see this has been a problem in bmws and there was an extended warranty for other models. This should be a recall as it is a safety issue as bags will not deploy.”

“The contact owns a 2004 Bmw 325CI. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 20 MPH, the air bag warning indicator illuminated after the seat was adjusted. The failure recurred on multiple occasions. The vehicle was taken to a dealer. The technician diagnosed that the mat was faulty. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.”
