Reported risk: Issue:
On certain 2 Series Coupe models, the rear seat backrest cover panels could crack when a side airbag deploys. If this happens, the side airbag(s) may not inflate properly in a crash.
Safety Risk:
An airbag that does not work properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.
Corrective Actions:
BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the rear seat backrest side airbag cover panels. To reduce the safety risk, BMW recommends that you should not transport any passengers in the rear seats until the recall repairs have been completed.
