THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A POSSIBLE CRASH. CORRECTION: A BUSHING KIT WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE CRUISE CONTROL SERVO BAIL.

Description (français)

Une petite bague en nylon peut glisser hors de l'étrier de l'asservissement du régulateur de vitesse automatique et faire augmenter la vitesse ou causer de l'autoallumage. A cause de cette même défectuosité, il se peut aussi que la tige de l'asservissement perce la rotule et vienne s'accrocher à d'autres composants, coinçant l'accélérateur. La perte de la maîtrise du véhicule et un accident peuvent s'ensuivre.
