The hazard
On certain vehicles, the speed control cable could interfere with the speed control servo pulley and not allow the throttle to return to idle when disengaging the speed control. If the speed control is used and this condition is present, a stuck throttle could result, which could potentially cause a vehicle crash. Correction: Cruise control cable will be inspected and if necessary, replaced.
