2008 MINI Cooper S Air bags Problems

“To the best of my knowledge the airbag system is off line. The passenger airbags do not turn on when a passenger is seated. The passenger airbag indicator light shows that it is not turning on with or without a passenger. Also the drivers side airbag indicator light comes on the dashboard and the tachometer when I start the vehicle. This problem began while the vehicle was parked and stationary.”

“Air bag warning with the fault code 93c3 which has caused a recall of 91 thousand vehicles... My Mini s is not a recall car. (on the same grid as the recalled Mini's...same oem repair parts) Mini USA representative [jamie] suggested I remove the air bag and put a sign up in the dash indicating 'no air bag if I did not want to pay the $1500.00+ in repaiir cost... And that will allow me to pass the state inspection.”

“I bought this car used with 86,100 miles on it. When driving within the first 500 miles, the airbag light and seat belt restraint system indicated on my dash (both the tachometer and the speedometer). An alert for the airbag appears as an icon on the tachometer. I took the car to the dealership who indicated the auto got wet which caused the air bag module to fail, which now needs replacement at a ridiculously high cost.”

“I was in a bad car accident in which my car was rear ended. I was in the very most right hand lane on the highway, at a stop in stop and go traffic. The vehicle behind me did not stop, hitting me at approximately 75 MPH. As a result, my car spun out to the right and hit the guard rail on the side of the highway head on. The car then bounced off of the guard rail, and spun about 180 degrees to the left, where the rear end of the car then hit the same guard rail and finally stopped. …”

“(sorry for my english) the car turn on the passenger air bag sensor every time. I dont have passengers any time but this problem appeared. There is a Mini recall for this problems but they told me that my car is not in the recall list.”
