The cable connecting the hall sensor with the seat buckle might be too short.
Consequently, the sensor might detach from the buckle, causing a faulty seatbelt lock recognition, impairing the functioning of the restraint system and the deployment of the airbag, increasing the risk of injury in the event of an accident.
The BMW 3 Series models affected by this recall were manufactured between 16. 11. 2019 – 4. 3. 2020.
