What is being recalled

THESE VEHICLES WERE ASSEMBLED WITH THROTTLE CABLE SUPPORT BRACKETS THAT COULD CONTACT THE THROTTLE LEVER SYSTEM AND INHIBIT THE THROTTLE RETURN. THIS DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 124, "ACCELERATOR CONTROL SYSTEMS."

Why it is dangerous

CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: THE THROTTLE MAY FAITL TO RETURN QUICKLY CAUSING THE ENGINE SPEED TO NOT DECREASE TO A LEVEL ANTICIPATED BY THE DRIVER.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE THROTTLE CABLE SUPPORT BRACKET.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 95V-214 when calling a dealer.
