BMW IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2011 1-SERIES VEHICLES. IN A CRASH OF SUFFICIENT SEVERITY, DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRONT PRE-TENSIONER AND LOAD-LIMITER OCCURS. THE INSULATION AROUND THE PRE-TENSIONER COULD IGNITE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED A REMEDY AS OF 06-14-10.So the danger here is apparently that you could have a crash and then a fire. Not a good combination. If you've got one of these potential lemon BMW 1 Series vehicles, and your dealer won't help you out. Call us. Getting rid of BMW lemon cars is what we do. Every day. Since 1978.
