Safety recall 16V-071 still not repaired. BMW told me they repaired all other models so far but dont know when they are going to get the parts for the X3 models. I have been waiting since March 2016. It is now October 2016, plus I am in Florida which makes this repair a priority according to BMW because the damage happens faster in warmer climates.

Takata recall. I was informed by BMW usa that the interim repair is the same parts that are currently being used in the vehicle and that due to the new (same) parts not having been exposed to atmospheric elements thereby "reduces the risk." The complaint I have is that the risk should be eliminated by correctly repairing the issue, not to just "reduce the risk." The solution I am seeking is to have the vehicle repaired to eliminate the risk, not just reduce it.
Recall was issued Feb 2016 and notice sent by BMW March 2016; never received another notification from them that parts were available and only found out "interim" parts were available by proactively searching; September 2016 and still only "interim" parts available and not a complete fix?? this is the air bag - major safety concern that it has not been a priority to fix on the part of BMW.

I have been having issues with my X3 every since I've had it I am convinced that my vehicle is a lemon. Now my airbags have had a recall on them for almost 7 months and no one has contacted me on fixing them when I call I get the run around. I got into an accident and the airbags didn't even deploy, I could have been killed. I am seeking legal help. I want a replacement vehicle or I am going to court and they can have this piece of crap back. Now I haven't been driving my car for the pass couple of months because they claim that my airbags can deploy at anytime with metal fragments that can kill me, and possibly kill my daughter if she is in the car with me. This was our only means of transportation, and it is hard trying to find rides to and from work. I dont see why they cant replace my vehicle. I pay them every month for a vehicle I'm not even driving.
