NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

THE THROTTLE RETURN SPRING MAY NOT AUTOMATICALLY RETURN THE THROTTLE LEVER TO THE IDLE POSTION IN THE EVENT THAT THE LINKAGE BECOMES DISCONNECTED.

THIS COULD CAUSE LOSS OF ACCELERATOR CONTROL IF THE THROTTLE LINKAGE FAILS IN THE FULL OPEN POSITION. THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.

The remedy

INSTALL AN IMPROVED THROTTLE RETURN KIT.

Notes

SYSTEM: THROTTLE RETURN SPRING.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: COACHES AND STREETCARS.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
