BMW recalling more than 390,000 vehicles due to airbag inflator issue

New Delhi, July 2024.

BMW of North America is recalling more than 390,000 vehicles in the US because they are equipped with airbag inflators that can explode, leading to a potentially serious injury or death.

The original steering wheel may have been replaced with a sport or M-sport steering wheel equipped with a Takata inflator, the agency said.

If the inflator explodes, it may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants of a vehicle, resulting in serious injury or death, the NHTSA said.
