Takata Air Bag Recall Info: 2003-2004 X5s
Also take note that the VIN info is not yet available on the NHTSA website...so those that may be affected may want to keep checking back for more updates:

This is just a nightmare for all....Takata, the car manufacturers, and the affected owners...the latter with the worst of it all if the bag deploys and they have one of the defective bags. YIKES! oops...sorry about that...I'll try to fix that typo.

You better get some neck and chest armor as well.
Given the models affected, I am going to guess it is the non sport 4 spoke steering wheel. Can anyone with a non sport wheel run their vin and see of anything comes up? Mine (sport wheel) comes up with squat. I'm just curious and I'll keep checking.

Nothing for me. I have a 2003 e53 3.0L non sport. I signed up to be alerted and will post if things change.

My xi is part of this. The recall notice I received is only for the passenger side airbag.

I don't understand why 02 isn't on this list for e53, but is for e46? I assumed they used the same bags.

Keep checking the website to see when the VIN list gets updated...you may find out that you did make the list if you have a late build 2002 model year. BTW...wasn't the defective airbags mfg'd in Mexico? Perhaps the 02 e53 airbags came from another location or mfg.
