BMW F48 X1: front passenger airbag may not deploy

In May 2017, a recall was issued for BMW F48 X1 vehicles that were available for sale in Australia from 1 June 2016 to 30 April 2017. During production of the dashboard panel, the process of milling the deployment points in the passenger side panel had not been carried out. As a result, the front passenger airbag may not deploy correctly in the event of a collision, increasing the risk of injury to the front passenger. For the VINs of the recalled BMW F48 X1 vehicles, please see PRA 2017/16057.
