Details

What's wrong: Electronically controlled valves in the cruise control actuator may not function properly due to dirt entering the valves.

Why it matters: Cruise control would not disengage under normal operatingconditions which could result in loss of control and an accident.

The fix: Replace cruise control actuator and install additional vacuum dump valve.
