Airbag Settlement Notice

I just got my official notice that I am identified as a class member in the classaction suit regarding the Takada airbag recall. Anyone else get this yet?

A bit odd to me that it's the car manufacturers who are coughing up the settlement $ ...

Last I checked the 1M (in Australia at least) wasn't on the list of affected vehicles. Strange

Yep; hurry up and wait; don't qualify until you actually get notice from BMW to bring car in for repair. Lawyers must be rollin' in it.

Class action settlements for automotive suits are a joke. The lawyers will make 10 million dollars and you will get a coupon for a carwash and a donut.

Was anyone harmed by their 1M airbags? Isn't that what class action is about? I finally got my notice that I have an airbag available last week and my car was at the way end of manufacturing October and I assumed that all 1M's had airbag recalls. I can't imagine that 1M's shipped down under had different airbags, but I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time..

Didn't get the class action letter...

But coincidently I did get the air bag "Final Remedy Available" notice from BMWNA this week.

I never got any class action notices. I have already replaced the airbags in my 1M, and in my 135is convertible. My 2013 135i Coupe goes in this week for the replacement and then I am done.

I usually toss "class action notices" in the trash without reading them, but I haven't tossed any in the trash in the last 6 months, so I don't think any were sent to me. I'm hoping that my good luck continues.

F'n trial lawyers, ambulance chasers, a scourge on the public.
