THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ROD IN COMBINATION WITH THE PEDAL INSTALLED ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY CUT THROUGH THE FLOOR PAN RUBBER MAT OR CARPET INTO THE THICK RESILIENT INSULATION PAD UNDERNEATH DURING HEAVY OR REPEATED FULL THROTTLE APPLICATIONS. AS A RESULT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ROD MAY CATCH IN THE MAT OR CARPET, PREVENTING THE THROTTLE FROM RETURNING TO IDLE WHEN THE DRIVER"S FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE PEDAL.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Not supplied
Remedy: DEALER WILL INSTALL A NEW ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND RETAINER DESIGNED TO PREVENT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ROD FROM CUTTING THE RUBBER MAT OR CARPET. THIS WILL BE PERFORMED WITHOUT CHARGE.
THE FRONT SUSPENSION CONTROL ARMS WERE ASSEMBLED WITH BALL JOINTS WHICH MAY CONTAIN SOCKETS THAT WERE NOT PROPERLY HEAT-TREATED. THIS MAY CAUSE THE SOCKET TO WEAR RAPIDLY AND ALLOW THE BALL JOINT STUD TO SEPARATE FROM THE SOCKET, CAUSING EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT WHEEL SUSPENSION TO COLLAPSE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Not supplied
Remedy: DEALER WILL INSPECT AND, WHERE NECESSARY, WILL REPLACE THE BALL JOINTS WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
