2 recalls across 6 model years
The BMW 325iT has 2 recalls covering the 2000–2005 model years, both involving Takata airbag inflators that can rupture or explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, raising the risk of serious injury or death to the driver or passengers.
Both recalls share the same core danger but affect different airbag positions. On 2000–2005 models, the front passenger-side airbag inflator contains a propellant that can destabilize over time and explode with excessive force during deployment, scattering sharp metal fragments through the cabin. On 2000–2001 models, the driver-side airbag inflator carries the same fragmentation risk, specifically in vehicles where the original driver airbag was replaced with a Takata unit during a prior repair.
