    BMW recalls 32,760 X6 SUVs over rear-seat child-seat anchor bars

    Recall announced

    BMW of North America is recalling 32,760 BMW X6 SUVs from the 2015 to 2019 model years because the lower rear-seat anchor bars used to secure a child car seat may become damaged. With ISOFIX-type rigid connectors, the damage may increase a child's risk of injury in a crash. BMW stated that it was unaware of any related U.S. accidents or injuries.

    Company response

    • Remediation — BMW

      If it's determined that the anchors are loose, BMW technicians will weld a reinforcing bracket to the lower anchor bars and the vehicle at no cost to the owner.
