Speed control / throttle Vehicle recall #04V199000 · 2004 · 72,905 vehicles
What's wrong: On certain sport utility vehicles, the accelerator cable can stick so that the engine speed will not immediately decrease upon release of the accelerator pedal.
Why it matters: This can cause the accelerator throttle cable to delay rpm and vehicle speed reduction for several seconds after the accelerator pedal is released, which in turn, can lead to a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the throttle cable rubber boot. Owner notification began on May 24, 2004. Owners should contact Isuzu at 1-800-255-6727.
