Passenger restrain system malfunction where airbags will not deploy if car is in accident.this seems as an issue with bmws and they had recall before on certain models and years,dealers do not want to process claims under manufacturing warranty to fix an issue even the car is still under manufacturing warranty.claiming that water could have been spilled seems very convenient not to fix this issues.i took my car to dealer and they ran diagnostic test and charge me $200 to tell me to turn heat in the seat because moisture, sound unfair.week after that same message came on i am not sure how it is legal for bmw dealers to clear code and send people home and tell them to turn heat in the seat and hopefully problem goes away.which it did not and there should be recall for this issue especially if airbags are concern.
Car issued a safety warning concerning, "passenger restraint system malfunction" stating the passenger restraint system is limited.warning shows up when passenger seat empty and when car is stationary or moving.dealership service center verified vehicle had error code but stated they "believe" it is moisture in the sensor and instructed me to redirect air conditioning to floor when warning comes on screen.concerned about whether this is really just a sensor problem that should be ignored or if there is actually a safety problem with the restraint system.
Passenger restraint system malfunction.this is what randomly and constantly pops up. The fasten seat alert goes off the whole time iā€™m riding, although no one is in the passenger seat. I took it to the bmw service center twice and each time they keep my vehicles for hours, just to say they couldnā€™t duplicate the issue.
While driving message will pop up regarding passanger's seat belt and even driver was fasten the seat belt message will pop up in the screen to fasten the seat belt.it will start after 20 minutes of driving.

I was driving on the highway to work at 9am, it was a beautiful morning traffic was moving very smooth i was going 50mph approximately when all of a sudden my car jerks forward and backward then a beeping sound and stop suddenly on the van wyck expressway i saw my life flash in front of my eyes. Luckily the person behind me was like two cars aw1 car away so no one collided in me , however when i look through my rear view mirror i saw all the trucks and cars coming down i don't know how i was able to move the car over into the service lane, the craziness is that even though the car stop it was still in drive i was unable to put the car in neutral. It's been a week since this happen and i'm still having anxiety. I am having a hard time changing the car because bmw insisted. They said some collision avoidance was on very sensitive and it's fix now. But the why would a car stop suddenly on a highway when nothing was in front on me and no other vechicle was close by i thank god that i'm able to write this i need some serious help because if i get back in that same car i'm going to be driving in fear for the next 3 years who do i speak to regarding this issue. I didn't expect to get this type of treatment from bmw is like they don't care how it's affected me it's only 1 month all they have to do is change the car i did not pull slot of mileage on the car i just got the car i was i love with the car but after this incident i don't know if i'll ever feel a 100% safe driving a bmw. I never had any issue with my 528i it was perfect but it's sad to say that not this time around. Why am i going through so much stress and headache to change the vechicle it's jot my fault. I'm so disappointed in bmw.

While driving on a city street, dash warning lights illuminated, advising to drive immediately to the nearest bmw service center. At the same time the vehicle became hard to steer. While trying to pull off the roadway the steering wheel locked up, nearly causing an accident. Obviously a serious safety concern. Currently at the dealer for repair.
While driving at 40mph on a normal paved city street straightly, driver side door suddenly ejected and opened to the "half-lock half-open" state (door was fully locked when beginning to drive, and no warming was displayed). At the incident, door did not "fly open" but the lock was suddenly disabled, and door opened itself. Audio warming and visual warming on display were both activated at the time of the door opening. I immediately proceeded to a stop at the nearest possible area, and manually closed the driver side door.
My car had under 17,000 miles and had been serviced on scheduleby an authorized dealer.i hadbmw anchored driver's floor mat in place. My mother-in-law and i werewearing our safety belts. We were approachinga four-way intersection with a traffic light. The speed limit on the road is 35 miles an hour.i was driving slower than that speed. As i was approaching the intersection with a red light , i had taken my foot off the accelerator.although my foot was not on any pedal,the carsuddenly accelerated.i hit the brakes but i could not slow the car.i was rapidly approaching the intersection and other vehicles.to the right of the road was a house. I steered the car off the road and into the field on the left.i am certain that my foot was on the brake pedal because of its position and resistance.the car hadaccelerated without my foot on any pedal. Due the car's speed and an incline at the entrance to the field, the car became airborne for a short distance before landing hard and continuingtoward a dumpster.although i was unable to slow the car, i was able to steer the car away from the dumpster and toward a steep hill at the end of the field. The car was slowed by the incline and contactwith the ground.my foot was still on the brake pedal.i was able to place the car in neutral.i placed the car in park and turned off the ignition.i called 911. The airbags did not deploy. My husband and the police officer both confirmed that there was nothing impinging upon the accelerator pedal. My mother-in-law was transported by ambulance to the hospital where she was admittedfor acute lumbar spinal compression fracture. I was evaluated in the ed and released. Bmw is to sendan engineer from bmwto evaluate my car. The body shop told my husbandthatan employee started my car which initially revved ata high rate. Unintentional acceleration
