BMW X1 Recalled Because It Doesn’t Meet Federal Safety Standards
The automaker says it’s working on determining a repair
BMW is recalling 106,182 of its 2016 to 2019 X1 SUVs. According to the Nationa
l Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in the event of a crash where an occu
pant’s head contacts the B-pillar, the pillar may not absorb an adequate amou
nt of the impact, as required by federal safety standards.
The B-pillar is part of the SUV frame where the front doors latch onto their l
ocks, and it sits between the front passengers and the rear seat.
“BMW is diligently working on developing a remedy to address this issue as qu
ickly as possible,” a spokesperson said to CR in an email. Once a fix has bee
n tested and approved, it will be implemented free of charge at authorized BMW
Centers, the spokesperson said.
The automaker says it is not aware of any crashes or injuries related to this
issue.
For now, there is no action for owners to take. The automaker will be in touch
when a fix has been made available.

Check to see whether your vehicle has an open recall: NHTSA’s website will te
ll you whether your vehicle has any open recalls that need to be addressed.
If you plug your car’s 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) into NHTS
A’s website and a recall doesn’t appear, it means your vehicle doesn’t curr
ently have any open recalls. Because automakers issue recalls often, and for m
any older vehicles, we recommend checking back regularly to see whether your v
ehicle has had a recall issued.
