NHTSA recall 97V025000
Vehicle Speed Control · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Water can accumulate within the speed control cable conduit. If enough water accumulates, it could freeze within a low area of the cable routing when exposed to a long term cold soak at temperatures at least several degrees below freezing.
Why it matters: Driver control of vehicle speed using the speed control system or the accelerator control system would be diminished increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The fix: Dealers will add a boot to the speed control cable.
