The 2017 BMW X1 SAV has 2 recalls, both involving airbags that may fail to deploy properly in a crash, leaving occupants without intended protection.
One recall covers the seat-mounted side airbag: the inflator's igniter can fail to fire, meaning the bag stays flat in a collision. The other affects the front passenger airbag, where the instrument panel may prevent the bag from deploying correctly when needed. Both issues raise the risk of injury in a crash where those airbags would otherwise be expected to protect an occupant.
