What it covers

A service bulletin tells BMW technicians how to diagnose or fix a known issue. It is not a recall: a repair under a bulletin is normally paid by the owner unless the car is still under warranty or a warranty extension applies.

Additionally; the message "Front passenger restraint system" (ID 109) appears in the Check Control Module (CCM). The front passenger seat is not occupied when this warning appears.
