What happened

BMW is recalling certain 2000-2006 BMW vehicles including 323iT, 325iT, 325xiT, 320i, 323i, 325i, 325xi, 328i, 330i, 330xi, 323Ci, 325Ci, 328Ci, 330Ci, M3 Coupe, 323Cic, 325Cic, 330Cic, and M3 Convertible models equipped with specific Takata passenger front air bag inflators. The recalled inflators may explode due to propellant degradation caused by exposure to high humidity, high temperatures, and temperature cycling, potentially resulting in sharp metal fragments striking occupants and causing serious injury or death.

BMW will notify owners and replace the passenger front air bag inflator at no charge. The recall began February 13, 2020. Owners of affected vehicles should contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
