To avoid a head on collision, I was forced off road. When I moved out of the way I immediately applied the breaks which then took some time to respond as if it was blocked or as if I didnt press the pedal. By the time I felt some sort of stopping tension I was put into a pole. Airbags did not deploy.

Error: Passenger restraint system error message: Malfunction. Continue wearing safety belt. Consult nearest service center. This is occurring consistently. BMW is not taking responsibility. I have had repaired it twice but dont know what exactly they did. I did not see error for a week or so after repairs but again saw it. I have read and heard that there are lot of people having same issues with their bmws.

Takata recall

Takata recall -- 1.4 years is long enough!!!!! lack of information from BMW, dealer has no information on when they will be replaced. Middle of 2016 they said early spring of 2017 and still no information. Pleasee help, this is why NHTSA exists to protect consumers and put pressure on the big manufacturers to fix serious safety issues. We served 52+ years between the two of us in the military and don't choose to be severely injured by an airbag in a luxury vehicle that might spray shrapnel.

2007 Toyota highlander observed running red light and T-boned the driver's side of a 2014 BMW 328ix. Impact of collision was meaningful and direct, generating in excess of $10,000 of structural repairs to driver's side alone. No air bag deployment (front, side, curtain, etc) in the BMW despite of magnitude, force and placement of the collision. Driver of BMW sustained severe head, facial and bodily injuries requiring invasive medical attention and protracted physical therapy.......updated 12/15/15 updated 9/7/2017

I was about to park in a cul-de-sac going about 5 mph, while I was half way through the cul-de-sac the BMW 328D had a sudden acceleration and in a very high speed crashed into a tree. I do not recall the exact speed when it crashed but it was very high, it felt and sounded like a race car. My foot was on the break right when it accelerated. It seems like a major mechanical / electrical problem with this car. Called BMW hq to report the issue. A case manager has been assigned but no one contacted me yet.
