ON JUNE 11, 2020 MY CAR WAS DELIVERED TO CLASSIC BMW IN PLANO, TEXAS FOR 1999 BMW SAFETY RECALL 19V-851 FOR THE TAKATA NON-AZIDE DRIVER INFLATOR. THEY WERE ONLY SUPPOSED TO CHANGE THE IGNITER, BUT WHEN I RECEIVED THE CAR THE NEXT DAY I NOTICED THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER I TRIED THE HORN AND IT DID NOT WORK AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING THE CAR BACK FOR REPAIR. I GOT THE CAR BACK ON JUNE 25.2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT A CONNECTOR WAS NOT COMPLETELY ATTACHED. HOWEVER, THE PAPERWORK THEY GAVE ME STATED - "FIRST VISIT A DUAL STAGE AIRBAG WAS RECEIVED FROM PARTS. VEHICLE HAS A ONE STAGE IGNITER. THE HARNESS WAS DIFFERENT CAUSING HORN TO BE INOP." THE CAR WAS RETURNED WITH THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG (OR ONE THAT LOOKS JUST LIKE IT) AND THE HORN NOW WORKS. EVERYTHING I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE STATES THAT THESE 2 SYSTEMS (SINGLE STAGE & DUAL STAGE AIRBAGS) ARE NOT COMPATABLIE WITH WIRING AND COMPUTER SOFTWARE AND WILL NOT FUNCTION. HAD I NOT CHECKED THE HORN THE CAR WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN RETURNED FOR MONTHS UNTIL THE NEXT INSPECTION AND MY WIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING WITHOUT A FUCTIONAL AIRBAG. THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THIS THAT THE CAR WAS SAFE THAT THEY RETURNED TO ME ON JUNE 12. IF THAT WAS TRUE, WHY DID THEY PUT THE ORIGINAL BAG BACK ON THE CAR. I UNDERSTAND MISTAKES HAPPEN AS BMW CHANGED TO THE DUAL SYSTEM SOMETIME IN 1999 BUT I FEEL THESE GUYS WERE LYING TO ME TRYING TO COVER UP THEIR MISTAKE.

AT 0735HRS I WAS DRIVING NORTH BOUND ON I-215 IN UTAH'S SALT LAKE CITY AT 70 MPH WHEN THE DIVERS SIDE, SIDE IMPACT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WITH NO IMPACT TO THE SIDE OF CAR NOR ANYWHERE ELSE TO THE CAR. THE AIRBAG IN THE DOOR SHOVED ME AGAINST THE CENTER CONSOLE CAUSING AN ABRUPT STEER. NO LOSS OF CONTROL TO THE CAR. RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR, IE. HEADLINER, WINDSHIELD PILLAR, SIDE PILLAR AND THE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECT RENDERS THE POSITIVE CABLE USELESS. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN UNSAFE CONDITION THE COULD CAUSE SUBSEQUENT LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, RESULTING IN POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH TO THE OPERATOR OR OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY.

THE SIDE AIRBAG CAME OUT, AFTER HITTING THE CURB. TYPICALLY ONLY THE TIRE AND WHEEL SHOULD HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BASED ON THE IMPACT.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER ON A BMW 99 E46 328I AND I M VERY DILIGENT WHEN IT COMES TO THE CARE OF MY CAR. I HAVE MADE SURE THAT EVERY RECALL HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF AND ANY SERVICE REQUIREMENT MET. BUT MY CAR WAS SERVICED THREE TIMES FOR THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON THE FIRST TWO TIMES THE DEALER TOOK CARE OF IT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY THE THIRD TIME I HAD TO PAY AND NOW EIGHT MONTHS LATER THE AIRBAG LIGHTS IS ON AGAIN AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM ALL THE BMW MODEL LINE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE BMW ISSUED A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ABOUT ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS THAT GET OXIDIZED AND FAIL OVER TIME. THEY PROVIDE A SOLUTION IN THE BULLETIN BUT IT IS TEMPORARY FIX SINCE IT REQUIRES ME GO BACK EVERY SIX TO EIGHT MONTHS RIGHT. I SUBMITTED THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE. IT FEELS LIKE EXTORTIONS THAT THAT EVERY TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON I HAVE TO RUN TO THE DEALER JUST TO TURN IT OFF OR RUN THE RISK THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT WORK WHEN MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
