Address : Joyson-uet Miskolc Foreign States 3516 Country : Hungary Chronology : In January 2023, during an engineering development test of a new vehicle model, an atypical driver air bag deployment appeared to have occurred. An engineering review was initiated. A review of test results indicated that, although the FMVSS 208 requirements were met, nevertheless the air bag deployed in an unusual manner. Other test results including full vehicle, sled, and system-level test information were reviewed. During the review, it was suggested that other vehicle types in production may use the same driver air bag supplier, and the same air bag module design, and were therefore identified for analyses. Engineering development and test information for these other vehicle types was obtained and analyzed, as well as Conformity of Production (COP) test results, including information from the air bag supplier. Additional analyses found that, in rare cases during air bag module assembly at the supplier, a production process anomaly could occur involving a rebound tether strap. It was suggested that, if this were to occur, it could affect the deployment trajectory and resulting performance deviation, as observed in the January test. Vehicle assembly information and supplier production records were reviewed to determine the number and production dates of potentially affected vehicles. On February 7, 2023, BMW decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall. BMW has not received any reports, nor is BMW otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries that may be related to this issue. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-079 Page 4 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : The driver air bag will be replaced. Owners are planned to be notified by First Class mail and instructed to take their vehicle to an authorized BMW dealer to have the remedy performed for free. If this condition was noticed on a potentially affected vehicle prior to this recall, the remedy would be covered by the BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty program. Therefore, reimbursement for a prenotification remedy re Part 573.13 and Part 577.11 is not necessary.
