{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2019599","date":"2019-11-26","owner_notified":null,"manufacturer":null,"component":"Airbag","summary":"Issue:\nOn certain cars, exposure to moisture over time could cause the driver-front airbag not to inflate properly in a crash. In some cases, this could cause an airbag not to fully inflate, while in others it could cause it to deploy with more force than normal. It could also cause the inflator to rupture. If the airbag inflator ruptures, small pieces of metal could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag and prevent its proper function.\nNote: This recall affects cars built between May 22, 1999 and June 20, 2000. While the car was not built with an affected airbag inflator, it may have had one installed if the steering wheel airbag was replaced.\n\nSafety Risk:\nIn a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the driver-front airbag may not inflate properly or the inflator could rupture. This could create a risk of injury.\n\nCorrective Actions:\nBMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your car to a dealer to replace the driver-front airbag inflator.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"32 85 19RC","part_number":null,"units":5459,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Coussin gonflable","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Problème :\nSur certaines voitures, l'exposition à l'humidité avec le temps peut faire en sorte que le coussin gonflable avant du conducteur ne se gonfle pas correctement en cas d'accident. Dans certains cas, cela peut empêcher un coussin gonflable de se gonfler complètement, alors que dans d'autres, cela peut entraîner son déploiement avec plus de force que la normale. Cela pourrait aussi causer la rupture du dispositif de gonflage. Si le dispositif de gonflage du coussin gonflable se rompt, de petits morceaux de métal pourraient être projetés vers les occupants du véhicule ou causer des dommages au coussin gonflable et empêcher son bon fonctionnement.\nNota : Le présent rappel vise les voitures construites entre le 22 mai 1999 et le 20 juin 2000. Même si le véhicule n'a pas été construit avec un dispositif de gonflage des coussins gonflables défectueux, il pourrait avoir été équipé d'un tel dispositif si le coussin gonflable du volant a été remplacé.\n\nRisques pour la sécurité :\nEn cas d'accident nécessitant le déploiement d'un coussin gonflable, il se peut que le coussin gonflable avant du conducteur ne se gonfle pas correctement ou que le dispositif de gonflage se rompe. Cela pourrait créer un risque de blessure.\n\nMesures correctives :\nBMW doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur voiture chez un concessionnaire pour remplacer le dispositif de gonflage du coussin gonflable avant du conducteur."},"vehicles":[{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_328i","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_325ci","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_318ti","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_328ic","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_328is","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_323i","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_323is","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_323ic","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2000_bmw_328ci","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2001_bmw_325ci","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2001_bmw_330ci","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2001_bmw_325i","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"BMW","model":"3 SERIES","vehicle_id":"2001_bmw_330i","match":"curated","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2019599"}
