NHTSA recall 15V148000
Air Bags · BMW of North America, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Due to a programming error, the driver's front air bag deployment timing may be incorrect. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: If the driver's front air bag deployment timing is incorrect, there is an increased risk of personal injury in the event of a vehicle crash.
The fix: Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the air bag control module with corrected software version, free of charge. The recall began May 11, 2015.
