Start off with "(state your name), and I am sure you know who I am so lets get past all the plesantries and step right in to the part where you apologize and offer to fix my airbag and throw in a fresh sttering wheel assemb."
This technique will certainly assist in moving things along swiftly.
Good luck man, not a fun situation at all. I used to do IT at the BMWNA location in Ohio, just be kind and mention how much you are a brand enthusiast.

But it sucks anyway. nice that you'll get it fixed.
What about a test drive with some nice dealers car,
the same day your car's fixed?
Have you tested the F01, yet?
