Speed control / throttle Vehicle recall #05V162000 · 2005 · 659 vehicles
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, the accelerator pedal arms were incorrectly assembled by the supplier. The clearance between the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal May be reduced. This condition can increase the risk of both pedals being operated at the same time by the driver.
Why it matters: The accelerator pedal could be held down by the pedal stop assembly increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the pedal assembly and replace the accelerator pedal free of charge. The recall began on August 11, 2005.
