Question about buying 2020 mini 2 door hardtop
Hello,
I am thinking of buying a 2020 preowned hardtop mini 2 door (currently at 2300 miles). While researching the VIN I saw the car had 2 recalls since Aug 2019, Structure recall and Air bag recall. Both of those have been fixed since. Should I be worried about these recalls? AIR BAGS | AIR BAGS: AIR BAG/RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE | AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW:CURTAIN Report Receipt Date 05-20-2020 NHTSA Campaign: 20V283000 Summary: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020 X1 xDrive28i, X1 sDrive28i, X2 xDrive28i and X2 sDrive28i, 2020 MINI Clubman Cooper S All4, 2021 MINI Hardtop 2 Door (Cooper, Cooper S, John Cooper Works and Cooper S E) and MINI Hardtop 4 Door (Cooper and Cooper S) vehicles. Due to a problem with the rollover sensor within the air bag control unit, in the event of a rollover crash, the head air bag, seat belt pretensioners and other safety systems, may not activate. Consequence: If the safety systems do not deploy as intended in a roll over crash, it may increase the risk of injury. Remedy: BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air bag control unit, free of charge. This recall began July 17, 2020. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417 or MINI customer service at 1-866-825-1525. Report Receipt Date 08-28-2019 NHTSA Campaign: 19V634000 Summary: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2020 MINI Hardtop 2-Door Cooper, Cooper S, and JCW vehicles. The rear side trim panels may have been assembled without a crash pad. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 214, "Side Impact Protection." Consequence: Without a crash pad, rear seat passengers would have an increased risk of injury in the event of a side impact crash. Remedy: MINI will notify owners, and MINI dealers will install crash pads, free of charge. The recall began October 11, 2019. Owners may contact MINI customer service at 1-866-825-1525. |
