air bags

Post by peter2b »

Just seen in the Sunday times that air bags fitted to some BMW 3series between may 1st 1999 to august 31st 2001 may have faulty air bags these are made by Takata and when they go off in a crash can send sharp pieces of shrapnel flying towards the driver

These were a type fitted to the E46 3 series. BMW have a recall on affected cars.
