Details
What's wrong: A speed control cable may not have fully seated into the accelerator bracket at time of installation. If the cable is not fully seated into this bracket, the cable could separate from the bracket.
Why it matters: A loose cable can result in the throttle not fully returning to idle and cause an increase in stopping distance.
The fix: Dealers will add a retaining clip to the speed control cable fitting at the accelerator bracket.
