Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I own a 2008 Bmw 335I 4 door. There is a malfunction with front passenger air bag and sensor/control module. It was a recall issue that Bmw notified this agency of on 12/11/13. The NHTSA campaign # is 13v-564. Components: air bags frontal seat sensor/control module. The problem is that according to the research done, Bmw did not include my model year in the recall. They acknowledge it but did not formally issue the recall on my model year. Now the Bmw service shop wants approximately $2800 to fix this issue that is their fault. …”
