Issue
The throttle cable is improperly assembled, leaving the waterproof boot on the throttle body side retaining bracket incorrectly seated. Repeated throttle operation can cause the boot to become nipped in the cable take-up section of the throttle body. In the worst case, the throttle cable may fail to return, preventing engine speed from decreasing.
Corrective action
Inspect the assembly condition of the throttle cable boot on the throttle body side on all vehicles. Replace the throttle cable with a conforming part on any vehicle where the boot is found to be displaced.
