82V010000 · Vehicle Speed Control

Reported: 1982-01-28 (January 28, 1982)

ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, UNDER A COMBINATION OF LOW TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS AND A WARMED UP ENGINE, WATER VAPOR IN THE WARM AIR FROM THE CRANKCASE HOUSING MAY CONDENSE AND FREEZE AFTER A PERIOD OF STEADY STATE DRIVING CAUSING ICE BUILD UP AROUND THE THROTTLE PLATE. THE ICE MIGHT PREVENT THE THROTTLE PLATE FROM FULLY CLOSING WHEN THE DRIVER RELEASES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, CAUSING A SLOWER THAN NORMAL DECELERATION RATE AND AN INCREASE OF THE IDLE SPEED.

Remedy: DEALER WILL REPLACE THE EXISTING THROTTLE HOUSING WITH A HEATED THROTTLE HOUSING AT NO COST TO OWNER.

ON SOME OF THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, THE KNURLED NUT, PART OF THE RUBBER MOUNT ASSEMBLY WHICH SUPPORTS THE DIFFERENTIAL, MAY HAVE BEEN CRACKED DUE TO OVER-TORQUING OF THE FINAL DRIVE ATTACHING BOLT. THIS BOLT MAY BECOME LOOSE, AND CONTINUED OPERATION MAY CAUSE IT TO FALL OUT.

Remedy: DEALER WILL INSPECT AND REPAIR OR REPLACE ATTACHING ASSEMBLY, AS NECESSARY, WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
