This issue is for cars that have the rear seat recliner package. When you recline the rear seat, the front seat automatically goes into the forward most position.

When it goes into the forward most position and the seat back goes all the way forward, it is supposed to deactivate the airbag. This is the basis for the recall. At times, it may not deactivate the air bag.

My SA advised me today the fix will be software and that it has not been released. It says that on my work order as well.

Also, My SA said this is only on cars that have the rear seat recliner option.
My SA and BMW NA said fix is available. I hope they are right. Mine arrives into port on 24 Feb.
