  • S54 airbag issue?

    I saw an article on Takata airbags which have injured/killed several people. The BMWs affected are from 2000 onwards, so the S54s, which were made in America, might be affected. These cheap airbags deteriorate over time with temperature changes then can explode, the contents being like shrapnel. See link - scroll down to near the bottom for list of all cars affected by the recall in America.

      Had mine replaced on my Alpina B10 V8S Touring earlier this year. I think the recall only affects some e39, e46 and X5 models with the sport steering wheel
