No e6 model year stands out either way: across 2016–2020 the filed record is the same on every one of them, with no recalls and no owner complaints on file.

Both figures are divided by the number of years the car has been on sale, because otherwise the oldest year on the page loses every time simply for having been around longer. The current model year and any year under three on the road are left out: their records are not finished.
