AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The side and window airbags in your vehicle are designed to deploy during a side collision to protect you from injury. In some 2014-2015 BMW models, the airbag inflator can fail, causing a gas leak or a rupture.
Risk if Unfixed
If the inflator ruptures, sharp metal fragments could fly into the vehicle and hurt you. In a crash, an inflator leak could also cause the airbag to inflate partially or not at all, which could increase the risk of serious injury.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will replace the faulty airbags with new, safer ones — free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice in the mail.
