AirBag Recall

[Khantouch]

I work at Nissan and the same recall has been out for a couple of years. The same part is being replaced and the majority have been produced by one particular company and is the case for a number of other manufacturers hence the short supply.

It's the only but they haven't swapped over the years

Mine just turned up today.

I'm still waiting for mine :whistle:

Mine will come next Spring :thumbs:

[patphnx]

Got a phone call yesterday to say that the parts are back in stock so I'm booked in to have this done next Saturday. Is there any reason I shouldn't be having the recall done?

Bags of doom

Got the letter, booked into Elms BMW.

have had some issues getting enough stock of replacement airbag units as this is a massive global multi brand recall.

While waiting just be sure to warn any passengers you have of the impending doom!

Good Luck!

For those of you waiting for a letter - it may never come! I would suggest that you just phone up your local dealer and inquire when it would be convenient to have the necessary works carried out. :thumbs:

I was told by my local dealer (Williams Group) who supplied the car originally, that they will have the original owner on their system and that he will most probably receive the letter. :whistle:

Neil I received my letter and I'm the fourth owner. It's a safety recall linked to the dvla database. :thumbs:

So earlier on today I spoke to BMW (GB) Customer services on (0800 325600) and I have been informed that these Airbag recall letters are being sent out in small batches... hence why not everyone has received theirs yet.
While I was on the phone to BMW I also confirmed with them that I am registered as the current owner of my Cecil on their database and that both of the recall letters have been posted to me today. We'll see :whistle:

It seems BMW are not alone recalling airbags: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/engli...141211_37.html

Got my letter a few weeks ago.

Received mine today. About 6 weeks after Elms told me over the phone.
