What owners wrote

The car, while driving, rebooted its internal systems and the car had a 2-second shut-down and greatly reduced speed and responsiveness. When the dashboard and middle console came functional again, it displayed several warnings that certain features (like dynamic drive) were shut off and the car needs to go to a dealership. This car has been plagued with "electronic" problems since its purchase and has been in the shop every two weeks with a system failing or shutting off.

The seat sensor is failing on the driver side reporting a driver restraint system fault. Causing error of airbag system. Possibly due to massage seat leaking. Read numerous reports about same error fault on bimmerfest.com forums.
