Automakers have been struggling with the fallout from the Takata airbag recall since year of 2013. The dispute involves approximately 67 million inflators installed in millions of vehicles sold by nearly every automaker across the United States.
BMW said that they were not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the raising issue, it fully underlines the importance of precautionary measures.
The major problem generated from the ammonium nitrate propellant used in airbags. These ammonium nitrate airbags can deteriorate over time due to prolonged exposure to fluctuating temperatures, intense heat, and high humidity. This degradation poses a risk of the inflator exploding upon deployment, potentially ejecting dangerous fragments into the vehicle cabin. These inflators have caused the deaths of 27 individuals in the US with older vehicles posing a particularly heightened danger.
BMW has taken proactive steps to response the issue. This includes a do-not-drive directive affecting 90,000 models from the early year of 2000. This decision aligns with actions taken by other manufacturers like Nissan and Toyota, urging vehicle owners to promptly address and resolve these safety concerns.
