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.
The contact owns a 2010 BMW X5. The contact stated that the air bag warning light and passenger restraint system indicators were illuminated on the instrument panel. The dealer was notified of the failure. The contact stated that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.
The BMW I am driving does not have an adjustment for the seat belt height. The seat belt does not properly fit me as I am 5' 2". it comes across my neck, not my shoulder, no matter how I adjust the seat. It is uncomfortable and may pose a safety risk. There has been no particular incident or accident. I am making this complaint to let you know that there may be a future problem.
