Canada Takata airbag recall

It's on... No parts though... Seems like we're stuck like the USA.

Yup. Got that the other day. Funny though, when I mentioned it to the sale manager, as I was discussing terms in the new car he flat out denied such a thing. Didn't know what I was talking about. Not sure that I buy that.

I was test driving some '15s 2 days ago and the SM knew nothing of it either.... He knew loads about the car though! Lol!

I just think they're probably not on the up and up about all this maintenance stuff.

Ummm...I don't buy it. This is a major recall and to say that you don't know seems like it's trying I be kept on the DL.

Does the dealership contact us, or do you have to constantly follow up?

I need to go get my stupid driver's side seat belt assist thing fixed under warranty as it no longer catches the belt anymore. I figure I can do both at once if possible.

Had my 328's replaced a few weeks ago at Policaro BMW. BMW never called, unsurprisingly...

Just got the letter from BMW Canada today... finally they have stock it seems.

Traded the 2011 for a 2016: let's hope I don't have airbag recalls on the newer one...

Just had mine replaced last week after a 6 month wait. I recommend calling the dealership and getting on a waiting list even if you haven't received a letter.
