Summary

BMW of North America is recalling 318 of its 2023 740i, 760i xDrive, and i7 xDrive60 luxury sedans because the front seat length adjustment system may not have been welded correctly during manufacturing. If the seat is not properly welded, it may fail to securely hold the driver or front passenger in place during a collision. BMW dealers will inspect the front seats and, if necessary, replace the seat front structure free of charge.

Risk

An improperly welded front seat frame may break or move unexpectedly during a crash, preventing the seat and seatbelt from properly restraining the occupant, which significantly increases the risk of injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you own a 2023 BMW 740i, 2023 BMW 760i xDrive, or a 2023 BMW i7 xDrive60.
  2. Contact an authorized BMW dealer to schedule a free inspection of your front seats to determine if the seat length adjustment system was welded properly.
  3. If the inspection reveals a defect, the dealer will replace the entire seat front structure at no cost to you.
  4. For additional information, contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417 or visit an authorized BMW dealership.
