Details

What's wrong: During very cold weather, water thatn enters the accelerator control cable conduit freezes and causes the accelerator cable to develop a high effort or binding condition.

Why it matters: If this occurs, loss of normal throttle control can result, or the throttle will not return to idle when the accelerator pedal is released, causing possible loss of control and an accident.

The fix: Dealers will replace the accelerator control assembly.
