DEFECT #1 - VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL


Posted on: 1979-12-12
Description
Under certain conditions such as ambient humidity and vehicle pre-conditioning by repeated cold start, and short trip driving cycles in combination with sub-zero temperatures, there exists the possibility for ice to form in the throttle housing and temporarily impede full closure of the throttle plate when the accelerator is released.  This ice build-up in the throttle housing may cause hesitation in vehicle deceleration and increased stopping distances.

Consequence


Corrective Action
The dealer will modify the engine intake system to further improve preheating of incoming air in cold weather.  This will be done free of charge.
