CHILD SEAT:TETHER: CONNECTOR/CLIP

Manufacturer

BMW of North America, LLC

What Happened

The top tether anchor for the middle seat in your BMW is the part that keeps a child seat secure. In some 2020-2021 7-series models, this anchor is harder to access than it should be.

Risk if Unfixed

If you put a child seat on the middle seat without using the three-point safety belt, it could increase the risk of serious injury in a crash.

Free Fix

Your BMW dealer will install a protective cover over the tether anchor at the rear middle seat, free of charge. In the meantime, you should use the outboard seats or the middle seat with the three-point safety belt to keep your child safe.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

Manufacturer

BMW of North America, LLC

What Happened

The rearview camera in your vehicle is a critical safety feature that shows you what's behind your car. In some 2019-2021 models, a small part of the image might be blocked or not show up at all when you shift into Reverse.

Risk if Unfixed

If you're relying only on the rearview camera, you might miss something behind your car, increasing the risk of a crash or injury when reversing.

Free Fix

Your BMW dealer will check the camera software and update it if needed – at no cost to you. This will ensure your rearview camera works correctly, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.
