2015–2016 Rolls-Royce Phantom recall: airbag
⚠️ What's wrong
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Rolls-Royce Phantom vehicles manufactured May 22, 2015, to September 23, 2015. The affected vehicles have left and right side curtain air bags that may not have been manufactured properly.
💥 The risk
As a result of the improper manufacturing, the air bags may not position themselves as intended during deployment, increasing the risk of occupant injury in the event of a vehicle crash.
🔧 The fix
Rolls-Royce will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the side curtain air bags, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 16, 2016. Owners may contact Rolls-Royce customer relations at 1-877-877-3735.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
