Luxury car company BMW is reviewing its ambassador deal with Sonny Bill Williams.
The move comes after complaints about the dual-code international and two-time World Cup winning All Black's associations with controversial Muslim clerics, Mufti Ismail Menk and Erbrahim Bham.
Menk is known for his extreme anti-homosexual views, and was once recorded as saying: ``With all due respect to the animals, [homosexuals] are worse than those animals''.
Williams has been photographed with him several times and tweeted about the pair, including retweeting one of Menk's quotes after his nana died last May.
Articles have appeared in a variety of publications about WIlliams' links with Muslim extremists and a number of people have complained about the associations on BMW's Facebook page.
BMW New Zealand spokesman Paul Sherley told the Herald WIlliams' contract remains unchanged but the company is reviewing his role.
``We take on board customer complaints; very seriously,'' Sherley said.
``We're looking at the best way we can utilise him in his capacity, as we do with each of our ambassadors.'
