[XXX]. Airbag sensor recall. My car is part of a recall under MINI Recall 23V-xxx: Footwell Module. I took my car to a dealer and they told me that they would not repair it because my car is a 2007. My mileage is 102,000K miles. The notice says Im covered but they say im not. The recall notice is for the year of my car and they are saying my car is too old. This recall is for the year of my car so I am not understanding. A light comes on that shows the passenger airbag. Upon inspection by the dealer, it is a faulty seat mat sensor and needs to be replaced and cost $2,120.56. I dont have that kind of money. This should be addressed under the recall. My name is [XXX], [XXX]. Phone [XXX]. The dealership is Mini Cooper Downtown Los Angeles. 6333 S Almeda Los Angeles Ca 90001. I never received this recall notice and knew of this only because the light indicator came on. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Seat belt warning for passenger seat stays on despite buckling the seat belt. I suspect the air bag deployment is therefore not functioning.

Restraint System Malfunction Fault in passenger-restraint system effecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter. Having to replace passenger seat or sensor to indicate I have a passenger so the airbag will deploy. It looks like there may have been a recall for this in the past according to an article I found, but my VIN does not come up as needing this item replaced. Cost is approximately $800.

Passenger occupancy airbag sensor failed, MINIhas offered a recall for similar models but only the convertible and not the hard-top; however this is a problem for the non convertibles. It's incredibly unsafe for the sensor to go off and not be reset. I would like MINIto recall and repair all models with that sensor that fails, not just convertible models.

Passenger seat mat sensor on 2007 MINICooper faulted. There was a recall on BMW and MINICoopers except for this base model. Dealer said it would be $1800. To fix I would think the parts for this car are the same. Should be recalled.

I scheduled 2 appointments with brian harris MINIThey had my vehicle for around 8 hours and both times the replacement part was broken. Now all of my airbag lights are on and I don't even know if the driver airbag is functioning. They said they would call me as soon as another part came in and come pick up my vehicle so I didn't have to make arrangements to leave it there. I have not heard back from them in 2 weeks. I even contacted miniusa about this.

Takata recall. Airbag light came on when I sat in my car one day and when I took it to the MINICooper dealership a couple of days later, it was found that the driver head airbag has failed for no apparent reason. The airbag has never been used. Having the airbag fail on a random day is very dangerous, considering the fact that an accident could have occurred that day and the airbag would have never protected the driver. This is very disappointing and incredibly strange for an airbag to fail.

The air bag/seat belt system indicator lamps on the dash (behind the steering wheel) and in the speedometer cluster (center of dashboard) are on while driving the car with the seat belts properly fastened. This began on about 12/21/2014 with an odometer reading of 81,190 miles. Shortly after that I contacted the motorwerks MINIbloomington, mn, and was told there was no recall on this issue and it was not covered by warranty. I also contacted MINIcustomer relations and checked the NHTSA.gov site to confirm this. I kept watching the takata recalls, but my car was never included. I also called the dealership and MINIcustomer relations several more time, but got the same answer. Then on 5/11/17, we received a limited extended warranty letter from MINIthat covered the seat occupancy mat. The problem was that MINIs "policy" was to first have the problem diagnosed at a MINIdealer 'at our cost'. we went ahead and did that, paid almost $148.50, only to be told the issue was with the computer, or possibly the wiring harness and neither of those issues are covered by the limited warranty extension. The estimated repair cost ranged from about $1,300-$4,000. I have the dealership invoice (#1mcs838674), dated 5/19/17 (odometer 97,852) if needed. As of today, June 8, 2017, the lights are still on and the odometer reads 98,069 miles (see attached photos). I am requesting that the NHTSA review this issue to determine if is systemic and might warrant a further investigation or a mandated recall. If more information is needed, please let me know. Thanks'''''..

The "pass air bag off" with seat icon/2 light (located on the driver's side above the rear view mirror) began to come on intermittently with or without a passenger in the front passenger seat when the odometer read about 50,000 miles. The light came on permanently at around 70,000 miles. The dealership checked, did not find a loose connection, and said the sensor needed to be replaced. We contacted the MINIcorporation but were informed that although there was a recall for other 2007 MINICooper passenger seat sensors for the air bag system, there was no recall for the two-door hardtop. We replaced the passenger seat occupancy sensor for the air bag system at our own expense.

Passenger airbag light is erratic, sometimes it works, most times not.

The passenger airbag light is lit and cannot be turned off, this is the same issue others have had. Also the same problem that has happened to the convirtible 2007 minis that have a open recall to get the sensor fixed.
