CHILD SEAT

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The lower anchor bars in your X6 are designed to keep your child's car seat secure. Over time, these bars can get damaged when used with certain types of car seats, like ones with rigid connectors.
Risk if Unfixed
If the anchor bars get damaged, your child's car seat might not stay secure in a crash, which could increase the risk of injury to your child.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will add extra reinforcement to the lower anchor bars to make sure they can handle the stress of a crash. This repair is completely free, and you'll be notified when it's time to schedule it.

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS

Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
Your 2017 X5 M or X6 M has a label that says it has 20-inch tires, but it actually has 21-inch tires. This is like a mistake on a map - it's not a safety issue, but it's not accurate either.
Risk if Unfixed
This mistake on the label doesn't put you or others at risk of a crash, but it's still important to correct. If you're buying or selling your vehicle, the incorrect label could cause confusion.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will give you a corrected tire information label, free of charge. You should contact your dealer to schedule the update and get the right label on your vehicle.
