The hazard

In case of excessive acceleration, for example in a crash, the particle might lift from the housing and could cause a short circuit and reset the airbag control unit. This could increase the risk of injury to the occupants in the event of an accident requiring airbag activation.

The remedy

Consumers should contact an authourised BMW motor vehicle service centre, or call the BMW Group Customer Interaction Centre on freecall: 1 800 813 299.
