The occupant sensing lights and seatbelt buckle indicator lights and associated alarm in case a person unbuckles while in motion are not present and not working for the third row of seats. The third row position indicators are not present in the dash where all other seat positions are. For all other seats the equivalent position turns green when buckled , and an alarm is triggered if the seatbelt is unbuckled. In my previous generation X7, this worked as intended with all 7 positions available on the display and all 7 positions with the alarms. I have asked BMW who said this is not present on this generation, but opened a repair engineering inquiry after evaluating other models of the same generation. I also consulted online BMW forums and this impacts all other X7’s of the same generation. For the alarm, I have tested by unbuckling both seatbelts while in motion, with seats occupied with a passenger, and no indicator or alarm was triggered while vehicle traveling above 30 MPH. I currently have the 6 occupant variant of the car.
