Recall 1985090

The issue

THE HOLE IN THE THROTTLE LEVER AND THE STOP PIN MAY BE MISMATCHED, WHICH COULD ALLOW THE PIN TO LOOSEN AND FALL OUT. SHOULD THIS HAPPEN THE TENSION SPRING ATTACHED TO THE THROTTLE LEVER WOULD SEPARATE FROM THE LEVER AND THE LEVER WOULD MOVE TO THE FULL THROTTLE POSITION, IDLE POSITION OR REMAIN IN THE POSITION THE LEVER WAS IN AT THE MOMENT OF FAILURE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO CRASH WITHOUT FIRST WARNING.

Description (français)

Les trous du levier de.la comande des gaz et de l'axe de butée peuvent être mal agencés; l'axe de butée risque alors de se détacher. Si cela se produit, le ressort se sépare du levier et celui-ci peut se déplacer en position pleins gaz, en position de ralenti ou demeurer dans la position où il se trouvait au moment du bris. La défectuosité peut être la cause d'un accident.
