I HAVE A 2006 BMW 530I (MAKE: 03/05). TWO DAYS BACK, WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK (HIGHWAY), SUDDENLY THE MESSAGE, "PASSENGER RESTRAINT MALFUNCTION" CAME UP AND WHEN I RESEARCHED ABOUT THIS, I FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE 2006 BMW 530I'S FOR THIS ISSUE (RECALL SUBJECT : FRONT SEAT OCCUPANT PROTECTION MAT, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000) . BUT, WHEN I EMAILED BMW REGARDING THE ISSUE, THEY SAID MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL LIST. I AM NOT SURE WHY ALL THE CARS ARE NOT INCLUDED WHEN THEY ARE MADE IN SAME YEAR AND SAME MODEL. I AM ATTACHING THE SCREENSHOT OF THE EMAIL THAT BMW CUSTOMER CARE HAS SENT ME AND ALSO OF THE ERROR MESSAGE IN THE CAR. THIS HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY CAR NOW. SO, COULD YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND RESOLVE THIS FOR ME. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. *TR.....UPDATED 12/03/15 *BF UPDATED 05/21/18*JB

ONGOING PROBLEMS WITH PASSENGER AIRBAG AND SEATBELT WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATING. WHEN LIT, THOSE SYSTEMS ARE DEACTIVATED. BMW DEALER REPLACED OC3 MAT [RECALL] APPARENTLY TWICE. PROBLEM RECOCCURRED. DEALER REPLACED POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE [RECALL]. PASS AIRBAG AND SEATBELTS HAVE ILLUMINATED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE. DEALER BLAMED LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE, WANTED TO SELL ME A BATTERY. I REFUSED. THEY TESTED WITH A "GOOD" BATTERY. DEALER NOW STATES SGM MODULE IS DEFECTIVE DUE TO CODE 93F9. IF THAT IS TRUE I BELIEVE THE SGM HAS BEEN DAMAGED DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH OC3 MAT AND BATTERY CABLE CAUSING FLUCTUATING VOLTAGE AND DAMAGE TO SGM, PROBABLY THE CAPACITOR THAT STORES ELECTRICITY. IF YOU SEARCH ONLINE FOR 93F9 FAULT CODE YOU WILL SEE IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH BMW.

MY VEHICLE, A 2006 BMW 530I SHOWED A MESSAGE ON THE DISPLAY MENU STATING THAT I HAD AN ISSUE WITH "THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM". IT STATED THAT IN THE EVEN OF AN ACCIDENT, MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY. I AM CONCERNED WITH THIS ISSUE AS IT IS SAFETY RELATED. BMW TOOK CARE OF IT IN 2009, AND I RECALL THE SERVICE ADVISOR STATING THAT THE MAT WAS "PATCHED UP", NEVER REPLACED. BUT DID MENTION THAT IF I HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THIS SYSTEM, THAT I HAD A 10YEAR WARRANTY WITH NO LIMIT ON MILES AS IT IS A SAFETY RECALL. TODAY, I'VE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE YET AGAIN. SEEMS LIKE IT WAS A TEMPORARY FIX. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER, AND THEY STATED THAT BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAS A SALVAGE TITLE, I HAVE NO WARRANTY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY TRIED TO FIX THE ISSUE INITIALLY, THEN DECLINE THE PROMISED WARRANTY (WHICH I HAVE A LETTER FOR). ANY HELP TO RESOLVE MY ISSUE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. BEST REGARDS. *TR

MY 2006 BMW 530I HAS JUST EXPERIENCED A MALFUNCTION OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG / SEATBELT SENSOR, AND I TOOK IT TO THE BMW OF STERLING SERVICE CENTER, WHICH CONFIRMED THAT THE OCCUPANCY SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT HAS FAILED. THIS IS EXACTLY THE CAUSE FOR THE AUGUST 5 2008 BMW RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V384000), AND ACCORDING TO THE RECALL DESCRIPTION, MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AT THAT TIME. HOWEVER, BMW OF STERLING TOLD ME THAT MY VIN DOES NOT SHOW UP IN THE RECALL DATABASE. I HOPE THIS IS NOT A SCAM THAT BMW OF STERLING (VIRGINIA) IS RUNNING, AS THEY ASKED FOR $1400 TO REPLACE THE SENSE, THAN AFTER ONE MORE DAYS THEY SAID THEY CONTACTED BMW WHICH AGREED TO PAY 50% OF THE BILL. I REFUSED THE OFFER, AS IT SEEMS LIKE A SCAM TO ME. WHY MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL, WHICH STATES THAT ALL MY 2004-2006 BMW 5-SERIES (LIKE MINE) ARE RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, AND THAT BMW WILL EVEN OFFER A 10-YEAR WARRANTY ON THIS EXACT SENSOR? IS BMW ONLY RECALLING SELECTIVE CARS, AND NOT ALL OF THEM, TO SAVE SOME EXTRA MONEY????? *TR
