NHTSA recall 02V117000

What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles built with manual transaxles, there is the potential for the speed control cable to hang up at the throttle body bracket during high, wide open throttle operation, preventing the throttle from returning to the closed position when the accelerator is released.

Why it matters: If this condition were to occur, it may be necessary to depress the clutch and apply the brake to bring the vehicle to a stop.

The fix: Dealers will replace the throttle body and check for proper operation. Owner notification began April 25, 2002.
