The hazard
On certain vehicles, the accelerator cable core wire may wear the cable conduit end fitting due to a fifteen degree angle it makes with the conduit at the throttle body end. This could also lead to wear or separation of strands of the core wire, which could prevent the throttle from returning to the idle position. A "stuck" throttle could adversely affect vehicle control. Correction: Dealers will replace the accelerator cable and throttle body with the revised parts that are currently being used on the 5.4L automatic transmission vehicles. Accelerator cable and throttle body will be replaced with revised parts that are currently being used on the 5.4 litre automatic transmission vehicles.
