My airbag got replaced today under the Takata recall (07 E92 335i)

[Pete.J]

My airbag just got replaced under the Takata airbag recall. 1er and 3er use the same airbag hence why, I am posting here.

Last week, BMW called me and asked me to bring my car in.

I booked it for today 1pm, dropped it off, took 35 mins including a complimentary wash inside and out.

What do you need to do now:

Nothing, just wait till you receive a phone call like I did, or just wait till 01/07/2018 when the official list of affected VINs is out (according to the two below links), 01/07 is only a month away.

I was going to wait till 01/07 like everyone else, BMW are the ones that contacted me, and asked me to bring my car in, otherwise I would have just waited.

In the meantime, if you‘re not the original owner of your 135i/335i, fill out this PDF contact form, save it, and email it to BMW Australia at “customerdata@bmw.com.au”, so they have your correct contact details as the owner of your vehicle, in case they contact you like they did with me.

Off-topic, I saw a M4 CS there! Spent the whole 35 mins drooling while my car was getting ready
