Takata recalls" when I start my car, I keep getting a message "passenger restraint malfunction" involving seat belt, air bag, etc. If I don't connect my seat belt on the passenger side when no one is in it, the bell keeps ringing.my car is not on the list of recalls for this. Why isn't my car on the recall list"

I received a safety recall notice with the heading "final remedy available" and was instructed to contact my BMW service center to schedule a repair. When I did, I was advised that the remedy is unavailable and will not be available until a later date, maybe the summer of 2017. The notice suggests that I inform the NHTSA if BMW is unable to remedy the defect within a reasonable period of time. Given that it is unclear when the remedy will be available, I am notifying the NHTSA of my experience. Thank you.

Takata recall. I have waited over one year to have this recalled addressed and have not heard from the manufacture. How do I get this repair completed?
Takata inflators: I have been waiting almost a year for BMW to replace this airbag. I cannot sell the vehicle to a dealer until this is replaced. I expect my airbag to be replaced now. I want BMW to complete this asap...all I get from them is "parts are not available at this time"....

Had several recalls sent but everytime I contact and took my car. BMW stated that parts are not in. Been 2 years, so I was still paying and then told until get get fixed. No payments will be made on a car they knew was a safety hazard and did not for 2 years. Took car again in 2/2017. Same answer. Now they want to take care and charge me due to their lack to service my BMW, which is a safety hazard to drive
Takata recall - recall notice received over one year ago. No action has been taken by BMW to date. I have serious safety concerns about continuing to drive this vehicle and effectively cannot trade it in on another vehicle since its value is significantly diminished until the recall is completed.

I have been to the dealership several times since this recall and the problem is still not fixed. It's been over a year I've been on a waiting list and we are trying to sale the car and can't because of the recall! this is ridiculous. We need the parts ordered and dealt with it's been over a year.
Takata recall got recall notice March 2016 have checked with BMW dealer 3 times and am told I am on the list. I live in atlanta, ga but have a condo at panama city beach, fl and drive back and forth regularly. I don't understand why it is taking so long when this is such a major safety issue. I understand there is a priority list and I would like to be on it given the age of my vehicle and where I live.
