SRS failure on the passenger front seat air bag. BMW has many safety issues with the Code OC3. Passenger seat occupancy mat failure, seat pad requires replacement at a cost of $2,000 BMW is aware and is tone deaf to this safety defect. BMW should care about people possible dying from the airbag failure to deploy.

Passenger Seat Occupancy Mat is not working when a passenger is seated in the car. The result is the SRS Air Bang will not deploy in a auto accident. The vehicle was taken to a BMW Dealer Service Department and all they did was reset the code. The problem never was resolved, because the SRS warming light comes on when there Is a passenger sitting in the passenger seat. I am scared to permit anyone from sitting in the seat. I contacted BMW OF North America and they stated only the 2005-2008 models are being repaired by BMW. INDEPENDENT IMPORTED CAR SERVICE STATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2010 BMW X5 models-€¦-€¦.the faulty code is OC3. Please help me, thank you.

Constantly receive message "passenger restraint system malfunction: Fault in passenger-restraint system affecting airbag, belt tensioner or belt force limiter."

- Fort Worth, TX, USA

Front passenger seat mat sensor faulty leaving the front passenger without airbag protection. I'll install a bypass device because they are common and inexpensive and available because so many bmws have this issue. The bypass device will allow the passenger airbags to deploy whether a passenger is in the seat or not. The years 2006 and 2007 saw recall on the passenger seat sensor. This needs to be addressed.
