Details

What's wrong: The dash panel pad can shift interferring with the throttle cable control.

Why it matters: The throttle cable control would not return to idle increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

The fix: Dealers will remove a portion of the dash panel pad so it cannot interfere with the throttle cable control.
