Details

What's wrong: The lock nut of the cruise control rod for the operating servo may not have been properly torqued during manufacture.

Why it matters: Inadequate torque of the lock nut could allow the rodadjustment to change. This could increase the engine idle speed, and possiblyincrease stopping distance with a potential for a vehicle accident.

The fix: Check and assure proper lock nut torque on the cruise control rod.
