crank shaft sensor recall [e36]

[tim_hu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

A few days ago I began experiencing some problems with my 1996 E36 328is. While I was driving home, the engine suddenly began to rev, the steering suddenly became stiff, and the car finally stalled. After turning off the car and turning it back on, the check engine light was lit. The car seemed fine until the next day when it stalled two more times while driving (I wasn't shifting). Could this be related to the recall on the crank shaft sensor? Can some one explain the recall? Thanks!
