Takata Air Bag Recall

Does anyone know if the F30 is involved in the Takata air bag recall that hit the news yesterday? BMW was mentioned that some of its vehicles could be involved in the recall.
I heard that it will take Takata 2-1/2 years to manufacture enough air bags to remedy this world-wide issue.

It's mid 2000's (2003 - 2007) vehicles mate, so no, f30 is not affected.

Don't think so. I just entered my VIN and nothing came up.

I read somewhere it was only the E46's H? (E9X came out in 06?)
