I talked with an SA (at the only BMW dealer in my state) since the part is finally in for my '02 (different part/recall, same issue) and he said they weren't giving rentals for E9x recalls anymore. I didn't ask about a rental, he offered that as (I think) assurance that I didn't have anything to worry about in terms of safety. I don't disagree, I still haven't heard about anyone getting injured in a BMW by a defective airbag. What I don't like is that I'm still holding the bag on a car with an open recall, patiently, but what if I want to sell/trade? Maybe I should have taken the rental :/
