A month ago, resuming the cruise setting on the cruise control resulted in the speed just accelerating to way beyond the cruise speed. Tried to take it out of gear resulting in the engine just revving up. Put it back into gear and it continued racing and accelerating. The only way was to hit the brake and slow down to the curb on a pretty busy highway. This was a dangerous situation. Took it into the bmw dealership who wanted a load of money to investigate. Have not used cruise since then. I think there is a manufacturer flaw and should be investigated by bmw. Once again, this can be and was very dangerous. I forgot the incident and tried it again that resulted in exactly the same failure. *cb

Consumer put on seatbelt, started the car put in reverse, and car jerked and took off backwards very fast. Went across to yards, and still rmp's were revving very high. Vehicle crashed into a tree on drivers side. Car had to be towed. Mechanic said that throttle was not stuck. Also, brakes would not stop car, consumer felt that throttle leakage and control and sudden accelaration played a big part in this incident. *ak

Driving the vehicle the check engine light comes on and the engine cuts out for a second as well the the gauges on the right side of the cluster fail. I have had the vehicle to three diffrent mechanics two bmw specialist and one and authorized dealer and none have been able to locate the cause of this problem. The failure occures usually after the car has warmed up and is excellerating between 2nd and 3rd gear.

Consumer's cruise control would not disengage, auto was traveling approx. 65-70 mph. Consumer finally slammed on brakes and was able to pull the auto to the shoulder, and after sitting with both feet on brakes while auto was still revving and accelerating. -she then was finally able to put auto in park and shut off engine, but then after waiting 2-5 minutes, turned auto on again and the auto continued to accelerate while in park. Driver finally shut auto off and called for help. *ak
