| 2006 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT ~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|

DEALERSHIP INFORMED CONSUMER THAT THROTTLE PLATE COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS DEFECT, AND THAT COMPONENT WAS CURRENTLY ON BACKORDER. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS.*AK |
