Car has been to the BMW dealership several times regarding the air bag sensor alert. BMW dealership doesn't know what is causing the sensor to come on. I have made several complaints to BMW headquarters regarding this issue. The BMW dealership will clear the alert or attempt to repair it, then within less than 200 miles the alert comes on again. I return the car to the BMW dealership, then they want to try something else, which is costing additional money. BMW is aware of this issue and need to be held accountable.I just hope that an accident doesn't happen which will require the air bag to be deployed.
