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

“Saw on the web that Mini recalled and then extended warranty recall on an airbag malfunction. The light came on a few days ago, but I can not find any information as to the truth in that statement. Supposedly 10 years or 150,000 miles.”
