ADVERTISEMENT The German automaker says the recall involves the 2006 3 Series, the 2004-2006 5 Series, and the 2004-2006 X3 compact sport utility vehicle. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a posting on its Web site Wednesday that small cracks could develop in a seat detection mat and lead to the front passenger air bags to be deactivated. It would also turn on the passenger air bag "on-off" light. NHTSA (NIT'sa) says the head protection system would not be affected. The company said last month there had been no injuries or accidents tied to the problem. bob250 08-21-2008, 09:30 PM wow DROPTOP325 08-27-2008, 10:36 AM Has BMW said anything? |
