Details

What's wrong: When installed in the vehicles, a tie wrap is used to guide the cruise control cable in the engine compartment. Some tie wraps have been installed with a large loop opening improperly guiding the cable which could prevent the throttle from returning to its full idle position.

Why it matters: The engine speed may not return to idle increasing thepotential for a vehicle collision.

The fix: Dealers will remove the cruise control tie wrap and install a newly designed guide.
