A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Since 2014 I have had to replace 3 oem rims for cracking. This has caused me much inconvenience and time and money to replace not only the rims but at times the tire itself. BMW's failure to disclose the fact that the BMW rtf alloy wheels prematurely crack is especially egregious in light of the safety hazard resulting from driving with a cracked wheel, due to the loss of tire pressure that typically ensues. Moreover, the possibility of a loss in tire pressure while driving the subject vehicles would be a material fact to a reasonable consumer. A case was awarded for the Z car model in the us and another for my model using this similar argument about the rims in the U.K. but BMW refuses to entertain it the BMW alloy wheels are subject to cracking under normal driving conditions, creating a safety hazard and necessitating replacement or repair of the wheel and sometimes the tire, at substantial cost to the consumer. Most recently, and most alarming, I received a "fault in passenger-restraint system affecting my airbag" when I started my car up two-weeks ago. I have done plenty of research and found that a BMW safety recall was made on the exact year and model (2006 BMW 330I), but my VIN is not covered because it did not come with the specific sport seats, it was called under. I do not understand if so many individuals in BMW forums are having this same issue without having the "sport seats" but we share the same model, make and year as the one NHTSA originally got recalled recalled, why my VIN is not covered. This is a huge liability on bmws end and no coincidence. Should I get in an accident with a passenger, the airbag will not deploy. Please help!!! www.nbcnews.com/id/26179745/
