The issue

ON VEHICLES WITH 4 LITRE ENGINES, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE THROTTLE LEVER COULD CONTACT THE THROTTLE BODY AIR INLET TUBE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE THROTTLE TO STICK WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS RELEASED FROM THE FULL THROTTLE POSITION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. CORRECTION: AIR INLET TUBE WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONE OF A NEW DESIGN, HAVING AN INCREASE IN THROTTLE LEVER-TO-INLET TUBE CLEARANCE.
