Recall 1999086

The issue

On certain 323I, 328I and M3 vehicles, non-crash impacts with a significant vertical and/or longitudinal component, such as experienced when contacting large potholes or curbs at substantial speed, could cause the lateral airbag and head protection system (HPS) to deploy inadvertently. Correction: Airbag control module will be reprogrammed.

Description (français)

Sur certaines BMW 323I, 328I et M3, même si le véhicule n’est pas impliqué dans un accident, il se peut que certains chocs comportant une composante verticale ou longitudinale importante, comme quand on heurte un nid de poule ou une chaîne de trottoir, provoquent le déploiement inopportun du coussin gonflable latéral et du système de protection de la tête. Correction : Le module de commande des coussins gonflables devra être reprogrammé.
