The front seat occupant protection mat in the 2007 BMW 328xi is displayed on my dash instrumentation for over a year.in the event of a crash the front passenger air bag could be deactivated resulting in personal injury. I looked up the recalls on this vehicle and it indicated that the model was recalled. I called BMW customer relations to inquire about the recall and the representative informed me that my vehicle VIN number was not part of the recall. I understand that numerous BMW owners have made a similar complaint about their vehicle and recalls are usually initiated in this manner. Regardless of the production time that my vehicle was made, my vehicle has the same defect as the other vehicles and should be replaced by BMW.

Left headlight control module unit for xenon bulb stopped working on 2007 BMW 335I which caused the low beam xenon headlight bulb to go out at night. Many other BMW owners are reporting the same problem on the same side (left). Type in BMW 335I headlight control module and someone posting that their left side went out, is the first hit on google and many other posts I have seen also state the left side control module failed and their left headlight went out. It is a safety issue and a consumer protection issue as the cost to replace is $1100+.
