Vehicle speed controlReported February 15, 1994 · 39,777 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Fuel injection system reconfiguration to comply with engine emission standards cause higher engine vibration levels which lead to early wear and complete failure of the secondary throttle return mechanism.
Risk
In the event the primary throttle return fails, failure of the secondary throttle return system would not provide protection against loss of throttle control.
Remedy
A new production secondary throttle return system configuration will be installed.
