Details
What's wrong: The accelerator cable may have been kinked during vehicle assembly. The kink in the cable can cause either a high effort accelerator cable, sticking accelerator cable, or a broken accelerator cable.
Why it matters: If the accelerator control cable sticks or breaks it canresult in loss of throttle control. If loss of throttle control occurs while thevehicle is in motion, a vehicle crash could occur without prior warning.
The fix: Replace the accelerator control cable assembly.
