This is notice of a "limited warranty extension" only. This is not a Recall or Service Action.
Bolding is as in the original letter.

Based on the last bolded sentence, unless your SRS/Air Bag malfunction indicator is illuminated, I doubt that taking an affected car into your dealer would result in them actually doing anything, because, as stated, "This is not a notice of Recall or Service Action".
Curious- is your letter in reference to your Z4M? I called BMWUSA and spoke with them about this. I was told only the Z4 was covered, NOT the M Roadster. I don't understand this as all Z4's use the same seats(ie: M roadster seats are an option on the standard Z4's). Maybe this only covers the regular seats in Z4's but if you got a letter it would be for your M Roadster
