AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The driver's air bag in your vehicle is a safety device that inflates in a crash to cushion the impact. In some 2013-2015 BMW models, the air bag's inflator, which makes the bag inflate, may be faulty and prone to exploding during deployment.
Risk if Unfixed
If the air bag inflator explodes, it could send sharp metal fragments flying towards you or other passengers, causing serious injury or even death.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will replace the faulty driver's air bag with a new one, at no cost to you. This repair is free, and you should schedule it after checking repair availability with your dealer. This timing describes the original 2024 filing; contact your dealer now to confirm the free repair is available.
