Takata recall airbagsin houston, texas, on november 10, 2018, i was driving my 2006 bmw 330ci convertible, and when upon entering at 40 miles per hour an entrance ramp from tomball parkway onto beltway 8, i suddenly noticed a metal pole that was resting in the middle of the highway, in an attempt to avoid it, i braked and when the car became stationary, the driver and passenger takata recall airbags did 'not' fully inflate which seemed to function with a 'safety-related defect.'moreover, i strongly believe recall 15v318000 and recall 14v348000 that were installed at momentum bmw on march 9, 2018 which replaced my takata recall airbags with another set of takata recall airbags contained a 'safety-related defect.' as a consequence, i suffered a concussion and eye-related bodily injuries from the crash. In addition, on december 10, 2108, bmw of north america sent an engineer to houston, texas to inspect my vehicle, but the company will 'not' provide me the data analysis of its findings, and it claims that the company owns that proprietary data. My vehicle is clear of liens and is paid-off. Moreover, on january 10, 2019, the company stated in a letter that the takata recall airbags fully deployed; however, this is a false statement because the takata recall airbags did 'not' fully deploy, and my passenger and i were shocked of this malfunction. As of today, bmw of north america confirmed that the takata recall airbags were replaced with another set of takata recall airbags. Why were these airbags not replaced with an alternative safety equipment supplier?in closing, can federal safety officials inspect my vehicle in houston, texas because bmw of north america is 'hiding' the data analysis from me? i am submitting a police report and photos of the crash, so i look forward to your response.

Metal fragments from airbag
In houston, texas, on november 10, 2018, at night i was driving my 2006 bmw 330ci convertible, and when upon entering an entrance ramp from tomball parkway onto beltway 8, i suddenly noticed a metal pole that was resting in the middle of the highway, in an attempt to avoid it i braked and when the car became stationary, the driver and passenger airbags deployed without hitting anything with my front bumper.moreover, i strongly believe recall 15v318000 and recall 14v348000 that were installed at momentum bmw on march 9, 2018 were defective modules of the airbag deployment system, including the propellant in the airbag inflator because the airbags deployed while my car was at a complete stop. In addition, i also suspect that the delayed deployment of the airbag system is due to the malfunction of the occupant-detection sensors in my sport seats. It begs an answer to the following: why did the airbag deployment system activate without any frontal impact to my car? see also odi 11172440 *dsy

I received a safety recall notice in september 2014 from bmw regarding a defective airbag for my car (recall campaign no. 14v-428: front passenger air bag).i have called several bmw dealerships since september 2014 to replace my airbag and all say that airbags are unavailable due to the magnitude of the recall.i am writing this to bring attention to the fact that replacement of defective airbags are not being performed since airbags are not available.other than a recall notice, is there anything being done by authorities to escalate this issue so the problem can be rectified?

Vehicle was traveling south in the left hand lane on highway 101 in ventura california.driver side door airbag deployed for no reason while vehicle was traveling at approximately 75mph.driver was able to maintain control of car and was able to reach the right hand shoulder of the freeway.police responded to the scene and verified that no damage had occurred to the car.airbag deployment resulted in superficial burns to the drivers left arm and residual pain in the neck region.deployment caused violent motion to the car and if it had occurred in a heavy traffic situation a collision would have been unavoidable.
Takata recalli was told by bmw north america that the only remedy for the airbag recall was an interim remedy of replacing with the same airbag, but a new one.does the nhtsa stand behind this interim remedy as a solution to the safety hazard this airbag by takata represents?i am not driving the car now out of fear for my safety and have tried to sell it back to the local dealership, with no luck.they don't want it either.do i have any legal recourse to be compensated for loss of use and/or inability to resale the auto??
Dealership confirmed dashboard 'airbag' light is constantly illuminated due to error code for faulty passenger occupancy sensor mat.the e46 model does not have two indicator lights; i.e. The airbag light and the passenger on/off light, so this model may have been removed from previous recall due to verbiage differences.dealership warns against driving with children in front passenger seat until corrected.this faulty equipment is very well documented amongst the e46 customer base, verifiable via internet search engine usage. Also reference: 'front passenger seat air bag occupant detection sensor mat recall 08v-384' and 'nhtsa action number : ea08001' for further details and recalls for similar models.

This issue is with the piston rings of the bmw m54 engine.it burns oil at a crazy rate and only now are people finally figuring out that this is the issue.bmw lists several other fixes for the oil burning issue, but none of them solve the problem causing the owner to seek repairs that don't solve the issue.bmw states that it is "normal" for the m54 engine to burn up to 1 quart of oil for every 1000 miles.this engine is in many different bmw models and many owners are effected.my car now burns about 1 quart for every 500 miles i drive.
