Lights come on & off for airbags and or seat belts - randomly - unknown as to why - or if they are working - sometimes stay on - for 2 weeks - then go off and not on for quite awhile (weeks) brought up as to -why? with no resolution except may need repair? Does not seem to make sense - no accidents or even close to an accident ever occurring- local driving - car maintained.

THE PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANCY DETECTOR IS BROKEN. THIS IS APPARENTLY A COMMON PROBLEM WITH BMWS AND MINI COOPERS. SOME MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED. BUT MANY HAVE NOT, INCLUDING MINE. THE SYMPTOM IS THAT SEAT BELT AND AIRBAG WARNINGS LIGHT UP.
