Recall 1993138

The issue

THE THROTTLE CONTROL CABLE CAN BECOME DISENGAGED FROM THE RETAINING BRACKET ALLOWING THE CABLE TO INTERFERE WITH THE THROTTLE CAM MECHANISM. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE THROTTLE STICKING. IF THE THROTTLE STICKS IN AN OPEN POSITION, UNEXPECTED VEHICLE MOVEMENT AND A VEHICLE CRASH COULD OCCUR. CORRECTION: A THROTTLE CONTROL CABLE TIE STRAP WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Description (français)

Le câble de l'accélérateur peut se désolidariser du support de fixation, ce qui pourrait entraver le mécanisme à came de l'accélérateur et le coincer. Si celui-ci se coince en position ouverte, il se peut que le véhicule se déplace subitement et qu'il se produise un accident. Correction: Une attache autoblocante devra être installée sur le câble de commande de l'accélérateur des véhicules visés.
