2006 TIRES I OWN A 2006 BMW 325I WITH OEM BRIDGESTONE TURANZA EL42 RUN FLAT TIRES. THE TIRES HAVE BEEN MAKING A LOUD NOISE FOR QUITE SOME TIME WITH 18K MILES ON THEM. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE DEALER FOR MY FIRST 15K MILE SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED THE TIRE WAS NOT WEARING PROPERLY AND THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THAT MODEL TIRE. THE DEALER WAS ONLY WILLING TO PAY FOR 2 NEW TIRES. IF THE TIRE HAS A PROBLEM I FEEL IT IS FAIR TO GET 4 OF THEM REPLACED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND A RECALL ON THIS TIRE BUT I FELT LIKE IT DESERVED TO BE INVESTIGATED BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS THAT ARE POSTED ON VARIOUS WEBSITES. AFTER 6,000 MILES ON THE NEW TIRES I NOTICE THAT THE FRONT TIRES ARE SHOWING EXCESSIVE WEAR AND TEAR AND I AM GOING TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER. I BELIEVE THESE BRIDGESTOME TURANZA EL42 RUN FLAT TIRES HAVE SERIOUS MANUFACTURING PROBLEMS AND NEITHER BMW OR BRIDGESTONE WOULD ADMIT IT. I THINK THIS MODEL TIRE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE WE BUYERS HAVE TO REPLACE THESE EVERY 6,000 MILES ARE SO. BMW SHOULD OWN UP TO THE PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES AND REPLACE THEM WITH BETTER TIRES AT NO COST TO THE CONSUMER. GIVEN THE PRICE OF THESE CARS DEALING WITH TIRE ISSUES EVERY SIX MONTHS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR
2006 AIR BAGS I WAS BACKING UP AT 4 MPH AND PRESSED THE BRAKE TO STOP. THE AIRBAG AND SEATBELT WARNING LIGHT WENT ON. IT CONTINUED TO STAY ON AND HAS NOT TURNED OFF SINCE. THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE CAR OTHER THAN MYSELF AS THE DRIVER. I HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO THE MECHANIC TWICE NOW TO FIX THE ISSUE AND THE LIGHTS AND WARNINGS STILL COME ON. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY MY VIN IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT MANY OWNERS OF THE SAME YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET MY CAR VIN ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST? *TR
