NHTSA Recall History
2006 3-Series with the sport seat option:
The airbag occupant-detection mat under the front passenger seat may fail, and will illuminate the airbag warning and passenger airbag "on/off" lamps. In the event of a crash, the passenger side airbags, with the exception of the head protection system, will not deploy. Dealers will rework the front passenger seat sensor mat so that external force application to the seat does not cause a crack to the mat.
2006:
One suspension control arm and swivel bearing connection bolts was not tightened correctly and could loosen, which could impair vehicle handling.
2007:
One of the suspension control arms and swivel bearing connection bolts was not tightened correctly and could loosen and impair vehicle handling and control. Dealers will inspect the bolted connection and, if necessary, adjust the connection.
