Vehicle speed control:cables
Problem: On certain sport utility vehicles, the accelerator cable can stick so that the engine speed will not immediately decrease upon release of the accelerator pedal.
Risk: This can cause the accelerator throttle cable to delay rpm and vehicle speed reduction for several seconds after the accelerator pedal is released, which in turn, can lead to a crash.
Fix: Dealers will replace the throttle cable rubber boot. Owner notification began on may 24, 2004. Owners should contact isuzu at 1-800-255-6727.
