    Exclamation New BMW airbag inflator recall

    http://www.autoblog.com/2014/06/23/a...rd-and-toyota/

    "BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall."

    Only in "high humidity" states right now (crock!). If anyone gets a recall notice let us know and give us the details! I know Jon is in Florida for one.
    2005 BMW 330i ZHP 6MT. Built 11-19-04. Bought 4-2012.
    Stock: Nav, leather, PDC, Xenon
    Added by me: OEM Alarm, OEM heated seats, OEM aux kit, OEM Bluetooth, intravee, M3 strut brace, BMW Performance Intake, Nappa leather arm rest, updated LCM (triple blink, euro hazards, trifecta lighting, 3 stage brakes), temp gauge

    Thanks for posting. There is no humidity here in VA so I'm not worried :-) Didn't they say something like that on another recall (taillights maybe)?

    I'd believe high humidity.

    Hmm.. my car spent its first 7 years in the Florida swamp, but resides in the desert now. Sounds like I'd be at risk?

    It will be interesting to know how BMW handles that, Kevin. You should call and ask.

    Honda is expanding it to Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Honda gets that humidity exists in the south. Way to cheap-out on safety BMW.

    Odd that the M3 apparently isn't included.

    And they really shouldn't limit it to cars registered in high humidity areas. What if someone moves in the future? Or the car is sold to a Florida resident?
