Details

On certain 323I and 328I vehicles, the retaining clip that secures the brake booster pushrod to the brake pedal arm may be incompletely seated.

Depending on the manner in which the brake pedal is operated (e.g., if the Antilock Brake System (ABS) is repeatedly activated and the brake pedal pulsates), it is possible for the clip to detach from the pin on the brake pedal arm.

This could cause the pushrod to detach from the brake pedal arm resulting in loss of braking capability.

Correction: Clip will be inspected for tight installation and replaced if loose.
