Airbag and seatbelt restraint light

Airbag and seatbelt restraint light My name is Cameron and I had a BMW I three rex I just purchased the vehicle back in June 2020. A week after I bought the vehicle my seat belt restraint and airbag light came on. I am mediately took it two the BMW dealership where I purchased a vehicle they told ...me it was fixed after a few days and gave me my vehicle back roughly 2 weeks later the light appeared again. I took the vehicle back to the dealership where this time they kept my vehicle for just over a week. They returned my car where I drove it for approximately another week and the light came back on for a third time. At this point I was becoming very frustrated with the service that I was receiving from BMW because I just purchased this vehicle and I have two young children that ride in this vehicle with me and the car is indicating that there is something wrong with the seatbelts and the airbag. I did some research on the Lemon Law through Google and that is where I found Brett Shainfeld, Esq. I called his number and spoke with them over the phone telling him a story about my car. I felt confident after our conversation that I had found the right person to help me with my lemon law case. All of the paperwork was done via email which was reassuring given all that has been happening with the pandemic in 2020. Brett explained to me the process of the Lemon law and immediately begin to work on my case. He was very forthright and always answered my calls or text keeping me informed at all times during the process. While Brett was working on my lemon law case I had to take my vehicle back to BMW for the same issue three more times. In October Brett informed me that BMW of America excepted my lemon law case and would move forward with the buyback program. All I had to do in this whole process was provide Brett with the documents he requested from me. This made The process very easy and best of all I had no out-of-pocket fees as originally promised in our first conversation. If anyone is having lemon law issues with their vehicle I would highly recommend you contacting Brett Shainfeld.

I contacted Brett on behalf of a very frustrated client, who had been given the runaround from a dealer and the manufacturer over an extended period of time. He was concise with his recommendations and was ultimately able to get the manufacturer to provide a settlement that was fair and consistent w...ith what Brett believed would be the outcome of the process. I highly recommend using Brett’s services.

I could NOT have selected better representation! Mr. Shainfeld worked quickly and helped us reach a great settlement fairly quickly! I elected to pickup my final settlement check from his office, otherwise I would have never had to set foot in his work space. He works quickly and is incredibly trustw...orthy! Should the opportunity present itself again, I would work with Mr. Shainfeld in a heartbeat!

Attorney for the people.

My email to Mr Shainfield. " I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for representing me in my case against the Kawasaki Corporation. Without your expertise and commitment I wouldn’t have recover anything for the inferior product I bought from the Kawasaki Corporation. I am convinced y...ou have your clients’ best interest in mind when you reduced your fees and cost from your pre-litigation minimum of $2300.00 in order to maximize my recovery. It doesn’t get any better than this. If at anytime you need a reference for the excellent representation you gave me in this matter, please, don’t hesitate to call me or use my name." David.
