2022 BMW X6 SUV RWD Safety Features

Here are the safety features that come as standard on the 2022 BMW X6 SUV RWD

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC is an advanced safety feature in vehicles designed to help drivers maintain control during challenging driving conditions. By continuously monitoring various factors such as steering angle, vehicle speed, and individual wheel speeds, ESC can detect and reduce the risk of skidding or loss of control. It achieves this by automatically applying brakes to specific wheels to stabilize the vehicle.

Standard
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is a safety feature in vehicles that helps prevent frontal collisions by alerting the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle or obstacle ahead. Using sensors such as radar or cameras, FCW monitors the distance and speed of vehicles in front, and if it detects a potential collision, it provides visual and/or auditory warnings to prompt the driver to take evasive action.

No
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is a safety feature in vehicles that alerts drivers when their vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its lane without signaling. Utilizing cameras or sensors to monitor lane markings on the road, LDW detects when the vehicle crosses these lines and triggers visual, auditory, or haptic alerts to notify the driver of potential lane departure.

Complaint:
"the rear sensor system design on the x6 does not work as described and the complaint was acknowledged by our bmw dealer “with nothing they can do”. when backing up out of a parking space, it does not alert for persons walking or driving by behind you unless they are only inches away. this has caused personal conflicts with persons walking who thought we should have stopped. and, we nearly had a horrible accident when changing lanes at freeway speeds in front of a semi - a pickup cut us off by jumping in our blind spot and no alert was received. had i not finally seen him and took evasive action, we would have collided in front of the semi. i have seen similar unsatisfied owner complaints on the forums and there are likely other similar reports here. thank you. we are selling this vehicle to get something safer."
