How did you verify this issue?
I just checked our ic guy of flexcan, it seems he also had no sense of this issue.

Below is some version info what I got:
Mx6s use FlexCAN3, with IP version 10.00.12.00
Mx53 use FlexCAN2 (with glitch filter), with IP version 03.00.00.00
Mx28 use FlexCAN2 (with glitch filter), with IP version 03.00.04.00
Mx35 use FlexCAN2 (without glitch filter) , with IP version 03.00.00.00
Mx25 use FlexCAN2 (without glitch filter), with IP version 03.00.00.00
I'm not sure if mx6q has such issue.
