What Happened
The throttle cable in your C400X scooter lets you control the speed. In some 2019 models, water can collect in the cable and freeze in cold temperatures, causing the throttle to get stuck.
Risk if Unfixed
If the throttle gets stuck open, you could lose control of your scooter, especially in cold weather, and increase the risk of a crash.

Your authorized BMW dealer will replace the throttle cable with a new, improved version at no cost to you. Schedule the repair as soon as you get this notice.
