The problem
Interference occur between bolt that secures a fuel line shield to the lower portion of the dash panel and the accelerator pedal.
The risk
This could cause the accelerator pedal to stick at the wide open throttle position and result in loss of control with the risk of a vehicle accident.
The fix
Cut off extra length of bolt that protrudes above surface of weld nut to prevent interference.
Contacts
System: throttle linkages. Vehicle description: passenger cars.
