Alpina Burkard Bovensiepen GmbH is an automobile manufacturing company based in Buchloe, in the Ostallgäu district of Bavaria, Germany selling their own cars, based on BMW cars.

Alpina works closely with BMW and their processes are integrated into BMW's production lines, thus Alpina is recognized by TÜV as an automobile manufacturer,

The C1 2.3 version of the BMW (E30) Series is based on the BMW 323i and was available ex works 1983-85 although aftermarket kits remained available. The C1 2.3 was superseded by the C1 2.5 also from the 325.1 E30 class 3 Series for model years 1986-86 and subsequently by the 2.7 litre C2 2.7 again based on the 325i

This vehicle would then appear to be an aftermarket or replica C1 as it is firstly to new and secondly registered as a 320i

DEFECT #1 - AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Posted on: 2019-12-02
Description
Bmw of north america, llc (bmw) is recalling certain 1999-2001 323i, 325i, 328i and 330i and 2000-2001 323ci, 325ci, 328ci, 330ci, 323it, and 325it vehicles equipped with non-azide driver air bag inflators (nadi) manufactured by takata.  These vehicles may have received a replacement driver air bag as part of a vehicle repair.  Due to a manufacturing issue, the replacement nadi inflator may absorb moisture, causing the inflator to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.

Consequence
In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants.  An underinflated air bag may not properly protect the occupant.  These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.

Corrective Action
Bmw notified owners, and dealers will replace the driver air bag inflators, free of charge.  The recall began november 10, 2020.  Owners may contact bmw customer service at 1-800-525-7417.

Notes
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

These inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.

Consequence
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.

Corrective Action
Bmw will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger's front air bag, free of charge. The recall began february 13, 2020. Owners may contact bmw customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
