Details

What's wrong: The factory installed cruise control linkage may not have been adequately lubricated, which can cause binding and the throttle will not return to the closed position when the accelerator pedal is released.

Why it matters: The throttle sticking results in a loss of speed control and could result in a vehicle accident.

The fix: Replace the cruise control linkage.
