2005 BMW Z4 Air bags Problems

“On august 7, 2007 I took my car to sterling Bmw in newport beach, ca because I noticed the airbag malfunction lights were on along with other electrical issues. After they had inspected my vehicle for three days I was informed that the airbag/electrical problem would not be covered by the Bmw factory warranty, and the service department recommended that I file a claim with my insurance carrier. Obviously my insurance company denied the claim, because automobile insurance does not cover loss due to wear and tear, mechanical or electrical breakdown/failure. …”

“6/25/18 Bmw worked on my car and supposedly fixed the problem (knee air bag r & r , resistance too low in airbag, replaced airbag, internal module failure, srs b pillar right module) . 12/31/18 air bag light stays on consistently while driving”

“My driver side seatbelt sensor suddenly would randomly detect no seatbelt despite being buckled and then the steering wheel airbag deployed into me while I was reversing the car under 2mph. I suffered burns and bruises, hearing loss, and disorientation from the deployed airbag. I could have broke my nose, or my wrist or fingers. BMW dealership refused covering towing and inspection. BMW airbags across multiple models and years have experienced recalls and issues. Seatbelt detection sensor blinked before airbag deployed into me.”

I don't dare to go back to dealer to check because I'm afraid they will rip me off again and again. …”

“The contact owned a 2005 Bmw Z4. While the contact's husband was driving 65 MPH, the vehicle hydroplaned and crashed into the rear of the preceding vehicle. The air bag deployed with metal shards and a metal rod going through the hand of the driver. The contact also sustained minor burns on the hand and feet from the gases when the air bag deployed. Medical attention was sought several days after the crash. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to an independent facility. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. …”
