Try to cast the value to a string.

<html:checkbox property="carID" value="<%=(String)((CarBean)element).getId() %>"
/>

Also you might want to check out multibox... Like this:

<logic:iterate id="element" name="cars">
     <html:multibox property="carID">
       <bean:write name="element" property="id" />
     </html:multibox>
</logic:iterate>
