I have called (877.432.7841) every time I received a notice of our airbag recall. They can never get in contact with a dealer in my area to get this fixed. I have called and been put on hold 3 times for an extended time and am told to 'call back later'. if this is an urgent recall and the airbag is defective I would like this remedied asap as this is a family vehicle my wife and kids ride

BMW dealer has refused to inspect or replace driver side airbag despite having copies of the recall notices. Shop manager at alexandria BMW told me he would call me back after checking with his "distributer. That was in October 2016. Still has not heard from him.
