Details
What's wrong: A bushing which guides the cruise control rod can, over time, deteriorate and cause the control rod to bind.
Why it matters: A binding control rod can impede the return of the throttle plate to its full idle position.
The fix: Dealers will replace the control rod bushing with an improved version.
