Please remove this vehicle from the recall list for takata air bag replacement.. I had the driver's side air bag replaced in 2016, at the BMW dealership in wilmington, nc. I have no idea why the replacement wasn't reported, but that dealership did have an ownership change after my replacement. I continue to receive dozens of notifications for this recall, that has already been completed. I've contacted BMW at least 3 times, but somehow I'm still on this list. Please remove my vehicle from the recall list immediately.
I was driving and my side air bag and door air bag on the driver side deployed with no cause for this to happen. I pulled over. Nothing at that time was smoking or wrong with the vehicle. I drove the vehicle further down the road for about ten minutes to get closer to my boyfriend's house. I stopped in a lot to call him. Put the car in park and turned the engine off and the front end on the right side started to smoke. I got out of the vehicle and the front end slowly bursted into flames.

I received a printed notification from BMW of North America, llc dated July 2015 under the subject matter: "recall campaign no. 15V-318: Driver-side front air bag module." Since I received the notification, 13 months have passed and still I have not received any letter from catonsville BMW in Maryland regarding replacement of the airbag. Since I am the original owner of the car and still owns it, I am driving it risking my life and limb for myself and other members of my family. It is therefore requested that necessary actions be taken for replacement of the driver-side airbag of my 2005 BMW 325I by catonsville BMW as soon as possible to avert potential destruction of life and limb of myself and my family. Thank you.
