Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
BMW of North America is recalling certain 2007-2014 X5 and X6 models, including xDrive30i, xDrive35i, xDrive48i, xDrive50i, M, and ActiveHybrid variants. The passenger frontal air bag inflators in these vehicles may explode during a crash due to propellant degradation from long-term exposure to humidity and temperature changes. If the inflator explodes, sharp metal fragments could strike the driver or other occupants, potentially causing serious injury or death.
Owners should not drive their vehicles until the remedy is performed. BMW will notify owners, and authorized BMW dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag module at no cost. The recall began March 14, 2019. Affected owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417 for more information.
