2025 BMW X7

BMW is recalling certain 2024 and 2025 models including the XM, X5, X6, X7, and Alpina XB7 because the seat belt system may incorrectly detect whether passengers are buckled in. This could prevent the seat belt warning light from turning on and may prevent airbags from deploying properly during a crash. The affected vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for occupant crash protection.
