2006 Bmw M5 Air Bags Frontal Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	915976
Internal NHTSA #	10455045
Manufacurer	BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC
Brand	BMW
Model	M5
Model Year	2006
File date	08/02/12
Component	AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The passenger restraint system, airbag, seat belt, belt tensioner warning showed up in the car computer. Went to the dealer and dealer said that they will need to replace the passenger seat mat sensor and battery safety terminal. The cost is around $3500. When i searched online i found that the bmw 5 series 2004 - 2006 has a recall on this item already - please link. (http://www-odi. Nhtsa. Dot. Gov/cars/problems/recalls/recallsummary. Cfm? Rcl_campaign_id=08v384000&prod_id=113225&moduletype=vehicle&make=bmw&model=5%20series&veh_model_year=2004&searchtype=drilldown). However, my 2006 m5 even though is an e60 and the same chasis and model as the 2004-2006 bmw 5 series is not included in the recall. That's the reason that the dealer is asking me for the full price. This fault which is already a recall for the 5 series car should be added for the bmw m5 model as well. This is a huge safety issue as the passenger side air bag won't deploy unless this is fixed. On top of this, bmw has this part in back order and the part won't be available until 11/5/2012. I find this ridiculous as i am supposed to be driving around a car with a faulty passenger air bag for over 8 months!!

What is Recall?
