2008 BMW 335I Seats Problems

“My car is in perfect condition, mint...I am a certified fraud examiner. I was on a road trip from bellevue, washington to richmond, bc. While driving in richmond, bc near the auto west Bmw dealership, my driver's seat began going forwards and backwards as I drove. Sometimes the automatic button would work and the seat would stop.

I am barely able to steer and lift my foot off of the gas and apply the brakes. …”

“Passenger airbag seat mat occupancy sensor fault. The problem began whenever a passenger would sit on the seat, the airbag light would go on. After some time passed the light stays on permanently.

It leads to many just fixing it themselves, or just buying bypasses to avoid forking out over $1200 to get it fixed. The problem doesn't seem like a normal wear and tear situation, and needs to be addressed”
