TL;DR Summary

BMW has issued a recall for 90,000 models made between 2000 and 2006 due to defective Takata airbags installed in the steering wheel. The airbag inflator could rupture and cause shrapnel to hit passengers, severely injuring or killing them. Despite the recall being open since 2016, many owners still haven't taken their vehicles in for the free repair. BMW is making it convenient for owners to get the repair done, and with 24 deaths and 400 injuries due to the airbags, it's important to take action.
