Recall 2002076

The issue

Certain Focus SVT vehicles built with manual transaxles. There is the potential for the speed control cable to hang up at the throttle body bracket during high, wide open throttle operation, preventing the throttle from returning to the closed position when the accelerator is released. If this condition were to occur, it may be necessary to depress the clutch and apply the brake to bring the vehicle to a stop. Correction: Dealers will replace the throttle body and check for proper operation.

Description (français)

Vise certaines Focus SVT équipées de boîtes-ponts manuelles. Quand on roule à plein gaz, il se peut que le câble de contrôle de la vitesse accroche le support du boîtier d'injection et que le papillon des gaz ne revienne pas à la position de ralenti quand on cesse d'appuyer sur l'accélérateur. Si c'est le cas, il faudra débrayer et appliquer les freins pour stopper le véhicule. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le boîtier d'injection et s'assurer que la course du câble de contrôle de la vitesse n'est pas entravée.
