Details

What's wrong: The cable adjuster bracket nut on the outer sleeve of the throttle cable can become displaced fromthe cable abutment bracket on the engine.

Why it matters: Should this occur, limited opening of the throttle will occur, even with the accelerator pedal fully depressed to the floor.

The fix: Dealers will inspect these vehicles and modify the throttle cable system.
