Seats And Restraints

Transport Canada recall 2022501 · manufacturer campaign 52 80 22RC

7 September 2022

Transport Canada lists: X 7 2019–2020, 2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the springs that lock the backrest for the third-row seat may not have been installed correctly. As a result, the seat backrest may not fully lock in place.

Why it matters

A seat backrest that isn't locked could move in a crash and increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the third-row seat and reinstall the compression springs, as necessary. To reduce the safety risk, BMW recommends that you should not transport any passengers in the third-row seat until the recall repairs have been completed.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could allow you to close the sunroof remotely without the key fob inside the vehicle. Canadian regulations require the key fob to be in or near the vehicle when closing the sunroof.

Why it matters

A sunroof that can be closed without the key fob in or near the vehicle could create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to reprogram the roof function control unit. Alternatively, you can download an over-the-air update to fix this problem.
