Fault in passenger-restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter. This started happening a year ago after visiting dealership for oil change. I cannot have passenger next to me because we are afraid of malfunction in airbag system.

Air bag sensor for front passenger seat not working. Replaced once while vehicle under warranty. Same sensor malfunction again. BMW will not replace unless I pay, cost of replacing sensor over $4,000. I believe it should be covered by BMW since same part is again not working.
