Summary
Concern : ACCELERATOR PEDAL MAY FAIL TO RETURN TO IDLE
Description : It has been identified that on affected vehicles, condensation resulting from cold-weather use of the heater or other causes may form on the worn surface of a component within the throttle pedal assembly known as the friction device. If this occurs, there is a possibility that, in the worst case, the accelerator pedal may return slowly, or does not return to the engine idle position.
Remedial Action : Recalled vehicles will have a precision-cut steel reinforcing bar fitted into the accelerator pedal assembly, which will create a space in order to reduce the surface tension between the friction device, and a component referred to as the pedal arm. The subject bar also strengthens the reaction force of the spring that returns the accelerator pedal to
