Recalls

On certain 318IC, 318IS, 318TI, 325I, 325IC, 325IS, 525I, 525IT, 530I, 530IT, 540I, 740I, 740IL, 840CI and M3, the cruise control and throttle cable are attached to the same throttle valve actuating lever at the throttle housing.

It is possible that the plastic bushing on either cable could break causing the outer cable housing to separate from the bushing.

Throttle pedal application without cruise control engagement could cause the outer tube to catch on the edge of the broken bushing resulting in the throttle valve remaining partially open.

If this were to occur, the car might not decelerate as expected and a crash could occut.

Correction: A spring clip will be installed on the outer tube of each cable to prevent dislodgment from the bushing.
